That may be because you are trying to use a python built just for Intel
(ActivePython) with an extension module built just for PowerPC
(_mysql.so). What does this yield:

    file /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/_mysq
l.so

I'm not sure that this is the problem, though.
