The distutils default is to put code in the Python installation's
site-packages, but you can override it. Perhaps you should understand
your enemy <wink>. If you do a setup.py install --home=/some/dir, it
will install the code in /some/dir/lib/python. I'm not sure if there is
an option to specify the actual install direction.
