Thanks to Malcolm and Srdjan for your replies. Don't get me wrong, Malcolm, I'm not knocking Django! far from it, I think it's the bees knees.
It looks like what I've actually got here is a problem caused by a mixture of i386 and x86_64 libraries. if I try to build mysql-devel, the build appears to be pulling down an i386 old version of mysql which conflicts with the already installed x86_64 (and later) version. So I can't build mysql-devel so I can't install mysql-python. Anyway this is definitely a RHEL/mysql problem, rather than a Django problem so I'll go and dig in the relevant places.
