I tried upgrading the version of LibXML2 in my machine to run some propietary software. Compiled as 32-bit (-arch i386) and restarted to see if it worked. Now when I try to boot I can only get into the spinning screen and it just sits there.

Restarting in verbose mode (Cmd-V) does not show any error in the process, it just freezes after "AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement: initialization complete". I can't from any CD either (if I press c on startup it just spins the disk around and then stops in the same spinner screen).

I've also reset the PRAM/NVRAM to discard any problems with that and it´s still not fixed.

Any pointers of what might´ve gone wrong?

(Latest gen MBP, running 10.6.3)
