Installing Scrapy on Mac OS X 10.6

[Sky Larking]

Has anyone successfully installed Scrapy ( http://scrapy.org ) on a
Mac OS X machine running 10.6.x? The Documentaion says
Mac OS X ships an libxml2 version too old to be used by Scrapy...But
doesn't say which version of OS X.. I am wondering if the version of
libxml2 is also not compatible..
