Hmm,

On another distribution with 2.5.1, I do see the module:

/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/_testcapi.so
[stew at norris ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/_testcapi.so
python-2.5.1-5mdv2008.0

I'll have to do some research on whats going on, whether the python folks 
dropped this or what.
