It does exactly what it should. “—root” is the equivalent of DESTDIR for autotooled packages. It is meant for use by distribution to install in a staging area.
No, really not! I think that --root/DESTDIR should only change the absolute installation path and nothing else. With setuptools, this is not the case! Without --root, it installs data_files in the egg (which is useless) but with --root, it installs data_files correctly.
