Using mod_python there are actually ways around the lack of both these
overrides being set and the fact that it is possible to circumvent the
intention of the web administrator as far as them not providing you
these abilities in the first place, is why I personally wouldn't
recommend installing mod_python in a shared hosting environment where
there are many users running within the same web server. Luckily the
majority of people don't understand mod_python and how it works enough
so as to realise the mischief they could get up to. :-)

Anyway, will wait and see whether the original poster has FileInfo
override ability in .htaccess files before we consider the
workarounds.
