There has been very good progress on getting zope3 able to use python
2.5. An issue with direct regard to my question is:

Plone currently will only run on zope 2.9 and zope 2.10. Both need
python 2.4.x. It is very good to see that zope 3 will run on python 2.5.
I will try to find out of this progress will help the 2.x branches but
am not expecting so.
