    Changed the default installation directory for data files (used by
    the "install_data" command to the installation base, which is usually just
    sys.prefix.  (Any setup scripts out there that specify data files will have
    to set the installation directory, relative to the base, explicitly.)

with commit message stating that data_files are installed in sys.prefix.
