I've built mapnik on Mac OS X (Leopard) running on a G5 processor.

While trying to read the shapefile from the mappinghacks website (as suggested by the Getting Started page), I am getting an invalid envelope:

>>> Shapefile(file='world_borders')
size = 2[[BR]]

file=world_borders[[BR]]

type=shape[[BR]]

Envelope(4.157455691574588e-317,-1.62334203800658e-118,4.157518931977256e-317,4.15549523909189e-317)[[BR]]

file_length=3332172[[BR]]

shape_type=5[[BR]]

datasource=0x332fd0 type=1[[BR]]

[[BR]]
