You likely can not make it the default python .. because all the system based things will likely break. However, you CAN add (call) the correct environment to your startup scripts for the proper deamons in init, which should run the required servers with the version of python that you want. The whole purpose of SCLs is to allow multiple versions of the same items to run together on a given machine, and you can pick the one you need for a give application/server service .. WHILE, not breaking 9in the case of python) things like yum :).
