I have run into the same problem and put some documentation on the wiki:

http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_python#ImportError:_.2F...2Fdatetime.so:_undefined_symbol:_PyExc_IOError

I think something changed in freeswitch in the way it is loading modules, or
at least the way it is loading mod_python.  This behavior appeared all of
the sudden in recent freeswitch versions.
