Yup: https://github.com/matthew-brett/mpl-osx-binaries/blob/master/wscript#L20 through line 44 define the build rules for the libraries. I then (this came from John H's make script I think) delete any shared libraries: https://github.com/matthew-brett/mpl-osx-binaries/blob/master/wscript#L183 and force mpl to link against these libraries first by setting 'basedir' in 'setup.cfg': https://github.com/matthew-brett/mpl-osx-binaries/blob/master/wscript#L183 I should probably disable building the shared libraries as Matt T does in his builds.
