[Zope] RPM, python scripts, threads

I've got zope 2.3.0 running with python 1.5.2 on RedHat 6.2.

I'm afraid the threads for python have not been compiled in.
Is there an RPM that does it? (My system administrator will not let
me install anything without an RPM. How difficult is it to write an
RPM?)

thanks a lot,

-Philippe

(Below, I'm including the page source of an error message trying 
the Guest_Book example of the Zope Book, which btw is an excellent
book :-)
