This is a known incompatibility with the latest version of one of the
libraries we are dependent on, zope.interface 3.6.4. Please try with
current trunk:

  install darcs from http://wiki.darcs.net/Binaries#mac-os-x
  darcs get --lazy http://tahoe-lafs.org/source/tahoe-lafs/trunk tahoe-lafs
  cd tahoe-lafs
  python setup.py build

Then follow the rest of quickstart.rst.
