10.5 ships with python 2.5 as /usr/bin/python, it also ships with 2.3 in 
/System/Library/Frameworks (for backward compatibility with earlier systems).

Don't do that!  I haven't checked this for Leopard, but in previous version of 
the system Apple used /usr/bin/python in system functionality (such as PDF 
workflows) and therefore replacing /usr/bin/python by some other python could 
break your system.
