Yes, there is a sh-bang at the top of the script:
#!/usr/local/bin/python

The script runs if I comment the statement "from name_of_library import  
special_function" out (except the error because of the missing  
functions which are in the library ;) ).

The Apache-Config is set to allow cgis to execute in that directory.
<Directory "/Users/projectname/Sites/">
     Options Indexes ExecCGI MultiViews
     AllowOverride None
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
</Directory>
