Private functionality inside modules was renamed to a name starting with an underscore.

Macholib.ptypes.p_ptr is no longer present as it had an unclear definition and isn’t actually used in the codebase.
Bug fixes:
The semantics of dyld.dyld_default_search were changed a bit, it now first searches the framework path (if appropriate) and then the linker path, irrespective of the value of the DYLD_FALLBACK* environment variables.
Previous versions would change the search order when those variables was set, which is odd and doesn’t correspond with the documented behaviour of the system dyld.
It is once again possible to install using python2.5
The source distribution includes all files, this was broken due to the switch to mercurial (which confused setuptools)
