Looking at get_python_lib(), I'm not so sure that I'm correct:

    if os.name == "posix":
        libpython = os.path.join(prefix,
                                 "lib", "python" + get_python_version())


Although, I'm getting a bit confused. I just compiled and installed
Python(CVS) configured as:

./configure --prefix=/usr/dev --libdir=/usr/dev/pylib

But it didn't install anything in /usr/dev/pylib, as one would expect.
It just threw everything in /usr/dev/lib. I even gmake'd distclean to
make sure there wasn't some configure option cache of some sort. Same
thing.

ISTM that Python's libdir wasn't meant to be located anywhere other than
EPREFIX/lib.
