I had a similar problem and it turned out to be the order of the items in my
PATH. From Terminal, try:
echo $PATH | tr ":" "\n"
This will list the search directories in order. If /usr/bin is before
/usr/local/bin, there's your problem. You can just add (or reorder) the PATH
export in your ~/.bashrc file to be:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:${PATH}

The other option is to do:
$ sudo mv /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python2.3
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/python /usr/bin/python
to rename the old python and replace it with the new. The second line is
probably not really needed, but you never know who has hard coded its location.
