Good news, the osgeo4w crew has finished upgrading most packages to python 2.7. You should now be able to try upgrading. I think there might be a few minor packages that aren't available yet (I think that's mapnik, liblas, mapscript, mapfish, rpy2) Help on those would be appreciated if people want them bundled. See the osgeo4w mailing list and trac for more details.
