Install Python 1.5.2 on your machine AND remove Python 1.5.1 (if it's in your path).
There seems to be a number of posts recently with problems from vendors distribution of versions of Python that are either pre-1.5.2 or not compiled with thread support Can people who were bitten by this make sure they let whoever provided their distribution know that they should provide a 1.5.2 with threading? (last I looked, RH6.0 doesn't ship with --with-thread... :(
