That is a harmless bug in MySQLdb (it wasn't quite ready for Python
2.6), which I think has been fixed on their trunk, although I'm not
sure if it is in their latest release or not.

That "<<<<<<<" text looks like a CVS merge failed, inserting a diff
marker into the file.  How did you install the Biopython 1.50 beta?
I've just download and checked the Bio/Blast/NCBIStandalone.py file
looks OK in both the archives:
http://biopython.org/DIST/biopython-1.50b.tar.gz
http://biopython.org/DIST/biopython-1.50b.zip
