New submission from R. David Murray:

Someone on IRC reported doing this, and it (logically enough) gave a permission 
error trying to install into /opt.  That may be exactly what it should do...but 
if he'd done it as root, presumably it would have tried to install PIP without 
python having been installed first, which might be wrong.

(Donald says it would indeed install it, creating the directories as needed.)
