If I've messed up my python install, it certainly is inadvertent.  I do use
python, but I've checked my root history and I've not manually installed any
python packages since I installed F11.

The version is 2.6

To get a little cleaner list output, I ran python from root:

Python 2.6 (r26:66714, Jun  8 2009, 16:07:26)
[GCC 4.4.0 20090506 (Red Hat 4.4.0-4)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> for which in sys.path:
...   print which
...

/usr/lib/python26.zip
/usr/lib/python2.6
/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2
/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk
/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-old
/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Numeric
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/PIL
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gst-0.10
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0

The PYTHONPATH environment variable is not set

And, no, this is not a x86_64 box.
