Thanks for pointing this out. Doing this revealed two kinds of
problems (observable when launching tests from userland package).

First, several traps in form:

dyld: Symbol not found: _fcntl$NOCANCEL$UNIX2003
  Referenced from: /Users/pki/.ulocoda/lib/tenaron.dylib
  Expected in: flat namespace
 in /Users/pki/.ulocoda/lib/tenaron.dylib

This probably means, that something has changed in symbol naming
between os versions, so it could be fixed by correcting
interposers table to match current naming.

I commented out most of the mappings and left only one, for
open(), just to check if first test passes.

It showed that although call is being properly intercepted by
Python part, it crashed with something like:

I assumed, that it might be a Python2.6 compatibility issue, so I 
downgraded to 2.5, but this just made terra crash faster:
