Python is designed to work with multiple versions installed. Therefore,
the ebuild is also slotted so you can have multiple versions installed.
Use "eselect python" to choose which one you want to use as the
default. Also, don't forget to run python-updater after recent changes
that installed Python 2.6 for you. You can always unmerge the specific
old version afterwards. e.g. 
"emerge --unmerge =dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r2"
