It looks like you still have parts of 2.3.3 installed.  
/Library/Frameworks/Python.Framework is where a user-installed Python  
puts it's extension modules.

Even though you built your own Python from source, you should follow  
the uninstallation instructions here:

http://homepages.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython/uninstall.html

Once that's done, make sure to get the MacPython for Panther additions  
from the download page to get Package Manager back. Then re-install the  
PIL and Numeric extension modules. Hopefully this should resolve your  
problem.
