Probably the best plan.

All supported versions of Ubuntu have python >=2.5 as does the last two revisions of OS X. RHEL 6 and newer also have python 2.5. While RHEL 5 has 2.4 and is probably still widely in use, it also has gcc 4.1.2 which we don't support, so that probably isn't an argument for staying with 2.4.
