[Zope] Should I switch to Python 1.5.2?

I've been using Python 2.0 with Zope 2.3.0.
It generally works well, but lately I've
run into problems using string.split() and
now I notice that httplib encounters a
similar ("loop over non-sequence") problem.
I'm thinking of chucking it and going back
to Python 1.5.2, but I found that it does
not compile out of the box under SPARC
Solaris 2.8.
# ./python /usr/local/lib/python1.5/compileall.py
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (innermost last):
File "/usr/local/lib/python1.5/compileall.py", line 128, in ?
sys.exit(not main())
File "/usr/local/lib/python1.5/compileall.py", line 121, in main
success = compile_path()
File "/usr/local/lib/python1.5/compileall.py", line 85, in compile_path
if (not dir or dir == os.curdir) and skip_curdir:
AttributeError: curdir
(It doesn't know about os.curdir or
os.getcwd().)
So...before I try beating 1.5.2 into
submission under Solaris, I want to know if
there's an update of Zope in the near
future that fixes the Python 2.0
compatibilities.
Thank you.
