fwiw, I've never had a problem building python in my home directory on my virtual host by using the --with-prefix switch for configure. The only real catch is that #!/usr/bin/env python breaks. You also may have to edit .bash_profile (or whatever) if you've previously extended $PYTHONPATH there and I think that I went ahead and created the same kind of folder structure that you find in /usr/local (bin, lib, include, etc.) in my home directory before I installed my own python the first time, but I'm not sure if that's necessary. You also have to watch it if you are trying to build other stuff with a python interface like postgresql but it's usually just a matter of telling the configure file where python is- even at that, some things like plpython just won't build correctly or at least I couldn't get it to do so, but maybe that would be the case any way.
