This says o-p wasn't installed into /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/
which is possible if it uses as a default prefix /usr/local, I now
surmise.

Try configure --prefix=/usr ; make ; make install instead to see if it
works. And if it does, clean up /usr/local/python1.5/ 

If it doesn't, run strace -eopen python 2> python-log and try importing
CORBA so we see where it is looking for CORBAmodule.so

Take care,
