Don't use mod_python then, use latest mod_wsgi instead which works out
of the box on MacOS X Leopard no problems.

The mod_wsgi documentation warns you about all the problems with 64
bit MacOS X. See:

  http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/InstallationOnMacOSX

If you can't work out how to build MySQL Python wrappers yourself so
they are fat, and can't find precompiled binaries either, the mod_wsgi
documentation tells you how you can force Apache to run as 32 bit so
it works anyway.
