If you get that, there's something quite wrong. You should get a
listing all (Python) files in the directory where foo.py is - with an
icon with a + sign in from of them. Click on the icon, and you get
the classes in that file. Doubleclick and XEmacs opens the file for
you.

I don't know whether GNU Emacs also shows the icon, but the way
it works should be the same. 

(The speedbar _is_ a bit buggy, though, at least in the version I
have here. Sometimes it cannot parse some file and doesn't show 
all classes or all methods. I've also seen those errors with Java
files, too.)
