If you're going to fix this, then great. Perhaps you could make it:
a) use the proper Python distutils if installed;
b) fall back to using /usr/lib{,64}/python if distutils is not installed
 (though I can't imagine that there are many systems that are shipping with
 Python but without distutils, and you do need Python to run Xend, after
 all);
c) make sure that we actually do install into /usr/lib64 on appropriate
 systems. This is a current bug, though I've no idea when it got
 introduced. We need to install into /usr/lib64 because xc.so and xs.so are
 compiled native code.
Thanks Anthony,
Ewan.
