Thanks. I installed Python 2.7.3 from source, this afternoon. It said it compiled OK, although it warned of a handful of modules that didn't compile.
Chirp complained it couldn't fine gtk. I want to spend some time looking at the fresh python install before I bug you guys too much.

It's worth noting that you CAN localize newer installations of Python say, /usr/local/python2.7 and leave your regular distro's Python alone. When you want to run Chirp, you'll just need to start it via your desired python like:
/usr/local/python2.7/python /path/to/chirp/chirp.py
I had to do this on Centos5 and it worked well.

Try upgrading to Python 2.6 or 2.7.
Yeah, 2.5 is really old at this point and lacks some of the now-basic features of python that Chirp requires. Note that this likely means a distro upgrade. Installing python from source or other packages is likely to turn into a large string of dependency-chasing exercises that you probably don't want to start.
