Python crashes consistently

I agree, use the official python
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.2/python-2.5.2-macosx.dmg

I'm also using OS X 10.4.11 and I have no problem
for installing numpy
http://www.scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/Mac_OS_X

or you can download Pre-built binaries from
http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html
or
