Any chance you can use the python.org installer for 2.5.4?  Or the 
Macports version?  They both are supported on Tiger.

Again, I may be missing something but libpythonx.x by itself is not very 
useful, i.e. it's not your usual standalone lib.  You'll almost 
certainly need the whole python installation.  There are a number of 
ways to build python on OS X (google will find them or ask on the Mac 
python sig) but, unless you have some special requirement, use an 
existing python installation and build the ROOT Python module with that.
