[Python-Dev] Python install layout and the PATH on win32 (Rationale part 1: Regularizing the layout)

(resending, only sent to Van the first time)
FWIW, I avoid the directory naming problems Van describes entirely by
including my "scripts" in the source package and running them with the "-m"
switch.
So "python -m pulpdist.manage_site", for example, is PulpDist's Django
administration client wrapper. I do it that way mainly to get sys.path
right automatically, but it avoids several other installed vs checked out
differences too.
