FYI, I just did a bit more research and confirmed this as a packaging
problem with some 64-bit Python ports; see this thread for some background:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2005-April/004472.html
Apparently, none of the Linux vendors that patch Python to install to
/usr/lib64 catch all of the places that need to be patched. Some, like
Fedora, however, patch it enough that I can add a workaround in setuptools
to address the issue. I'm working on a candidate fix now. Are you using a
Fedora-based distribution, or something else?
Thanks.
