Ok, it's Zope 2.0.0b5.  I have RedHat 6.0. 
I downloaded the source of python 1.5.2 and compiled --withthreads
I installed python in the default /usr/local/lib,
Killed the old python 1.5.1
Symbolic links to /usr/bin for python and python 1.5 so the other RH
stuff doesn't break.
Apache has been terminated.
Installed zope in /usr/local/bin/Zope using python wo_pcgi.py as root.
ran start. get this message:
