I've tried the same, and everything works fine.

Portion of my httpd.conf (Apache 2.0.48):

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.201:80>
     ServerName lan.MYDOMAIN.TLD
     ServerAdmin postmaster at MYDOMAIN.TLD
     DocumentRoot /home/volodya/lan/data
     ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/volodya/lan/cgi-bin/
     <Directory /home/volodya/lan/data/>
             AllowOverride All
             Order allow,deny
             Allow from all
     </Directory>
     <Directory /home/volodya/lan/cgi-bin/>
             AllowOverride All
             Options ExecCGI
             Order allow,deny
             Allow from all
     </Directory>
     # -------------------------------------------------
     <Location /test>
                 SetHandler mod_python
                 PythonHandler mod_python.publisher
     </Location>
     # -------------------------------------------------
     ErrorLog  /home/volodya/lan/log/error-lan.log
     CustomLog /home/volodya/lan/log/access-lan.log common
 </VirtualHost>


index.py , placed into /home/volodya/lan/data/test directory:

# ------------------------------
def index(req):
    return "hello"

def func(req, name="world"):
    return "Hello, %s !" % name
# ------------------------------


http://lan.MYDOMAIN.TLD/test/
  Output: hello

http://lan.MYDOMAIN.TLD/test/func?name=Volodya
  output: Hello, Volodya !
