git repo is not relevant, but a python module that shadows a Sage python module would be a problem.

on a MacBook Pro (Core 2 duo, 4GB RAM)it might be that the executable you downloaded needs a better CPU (Core 2 duo is quite old...)What exactly have you installed, what file?
As well, it might be that you have some kind of conflict with some stuff in /sw/ you have in your PATH.Could you temporarily rename /sw/ and try again?
(there may be more variable that might affect running Sage, although this is probably a bug then)
PS. it is true that Core2 duo is x86_64, but not all such CPUs are created equal. Different CPUs support different machine hardware commands, and compilers are able to use this to produce faster code, at expense of portability. This is why a binary distribution needs to use the most basic subset of machine commands to be useful on all x86_64s.
