The expat problem you are talking about is probably: http://www.dscpl.com.au/wiki/ModPython/Articles/ExpatCausingApacheCrash It doesn't affect just Trac and can arise with any mod_python hosted application which uses the Python expat module. The possibility of the problem apparently goes away with Python 2.5 as the version of expat embedded in Python module namespaces its symbols so there is no clash. This problem doesn't mean you can't used older versions of Python. If you are concerned, followed the steps described in the article to see if your system might be affected.
