Its looks as if the code concerned has been written to require Python 2.0 
or later, where many of the functions in the string module became available 
as methods on string objects.

That said, the 2.0.12 README only appears to say that later Python versions 
are preferred over Python 1.5.2 rahter than saying they are required.

You probably need/want to upgrade to either Python 2.1.3 or 2.2.1 to fix 
your problem.
