[Zope] Python 1.5.2 on Slackware 4.0

[news]

Has anyone been sucessful in installing Python 1.5.2 on Slackware 4.0?
A good part of it runs without any problem, however, some of the key modules
do not work.

Some have suggested that my Python installed was hosed. I've checked Deja
and the web and have not found reference to this problem. Python folks have
said it's a glibc version problem.  Having some trouble with the time module
specifically when I run the following test:

 /tmp/Python-1.5.2$ python
 Python 1.5.2 (#3, Sep  8 1999, 17:29:29)  [GCC 2.7.2.3] on linux2
 Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
 >>> import time
 >>> time.daylight
 Traceback (innermost last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
 AttributeError: daylight
 >>>

 Here's how & what I installed.
