Great. I first had to install setuptools, but then this worked fine. (At least on Linux. I haven't tried Windows or Mac.)
I was going to put in a change to the doc, but I see someone has already beaten me to it -- thanks. Just so I am clear on the concept - After doing this you can just do python setup.py build but no need to do python setup.py install And thus save time and a little disk space. In fact, I would guess that in many cases you could even skip the build step. Many thanks.
