Comment(by maphew):

 I can't replicate the error exactly, but I came close by opening a command
 shell via Osgeo4w.bat and then:
 {{{
 O:\> set PYTHONPATH=C:\Python25;C:\Python25\Lib;C:\Python25\DLLs

 O:\> python test-ticket247.py
 :: contains "import ctypes"

 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "test-ticket247.py", line 1, in <module>
     import ctypes
   File "C:\Python25\Lib\ctypes\__init__.py", line 10, in <module>
     from _ctypes import Union, Structure, Array
 ImportError: Module use of python25.dll conflicts with this version of
 Python.

 O:\> python --version
 Python 2.7.2
 }}}

 This computer (Win7 x64) has python 2.5 (+ numpy) and 2.7 installed from
 python.org using the standard .msi's, and 2.7 via Osgeo4W; all pythons are
 32bit. I use the Osgeo4w python most of the time.

 It's clear something is allowing your python 2.5 environment to bleed over
 but I don't know what or where you might look next. I don't think it's
 coming from the osgeo4w side.
