I know the OP solved their problem now, but for the record, you can also get binaries of recent Pythons (and other packages) by using conda: http://conda.pydata.org/miniconda.html#miniconda This assumes you don't mind having a local install rather than a system install of Python (something akin to a virtual environment).
