If you must install on CentOS 5, I'd install Python but don't make it
the default installation. Install to a path such a /opt/python27.
Then, use a virtual environment that points to the 2.7 install for
your Trac installation.
On our RHEL 5.x boxes we used the IUS repo to install their python27
RPMS, they didn't interfere/overlap with the system Python. They worked
fine for us.
Unfortunately IUS migrated their RHEL 5 repo to their Archives so the
setup isn't so straightforward now. They have an "ius-release" RPM for
RHEL 5 in the Archives but the mirror list doesn't work, so you have to
hand-hack it after installing it.
If James installs the following:
https://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/archive/Redhat/5/$basearch/ius-release-1.0-15.ius.el5.noarch.rpm
(Substitute "i386" or "x86_64" for $basearch first, obvs.)
then you can go into "/etc/yum.repos.d" and massage the
"ius-archive.repo" file it installs - enable "baseurl" and comment out
"mirrorlist". It should end up looking like this:
--

At that point you should be able to do a "yum list python27" and install
it from there. (They also have python31 RPMs for 3.1 as well.)
