 It starts by constructing up to four directories from a head and a
 tail part. For the head part, it uses \code{sys.prefix} and
 \code{sys.exec_prefix}; empty heads are skipped. For
-the tail part, it uses the empty string (on Windows) or
-\file{lib/python\shortversion/site-packages} (on \UNIX{} and Macintosh)
