You can also download the .src.rpm, to keep the rpm database clean.
rpm -i python-1.5.1-*.src.rpm

Afterwards, you get probably in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS (If you've changed
the location, than you do not need somebody to tell you how to patch a
spec file.) a python*.spec file.

In this file, search for the configure line, and add --with-threads.

Then do a rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/python*.spec

Afterwards, you'll find the new threaded rpms in
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/<arch>, and can install them with 
rpm -U --force (as the do have the same release number as the RH
orginals).
