I don't have time to investigate this right now, I do have access to a 10.5 server box though. With some luck I'll be able to create a patch later today. Looking at the code in urllib I found the most likely reason for the problem: the Python script tries to resolve "CFStringCreateWithCString" through the SystemConfiguration framework. It may well be that this doesn't work on PPC systems and that this symbol should explicitly be loaded from the CoreFoundation framework. BTW. This probably also affects 3.x.
