# XXX this method is where the default installation directories
# for modules and extension modules are determined. (Someday,
# the default installation directories for scripts,
# documentation, and whatever else the Distutils can build and
# install will also be determined here.) Thus, this is a pretty
# important place to fiddle with for anyone interested in
# installation schemes for the Python library. Issues that
# are not yet resolved to my satisfaction:
# * how much platform dependence should be here, and
# how much can be pushed off to sysconfig (or, better, the
# Makefiles parsed by sysconfig)?
# * how independent of Python version should this be -- ie.
# should we have special cases to handle Python 1.5 and
# older, and then do it "the right way" for 1.6? Or should
# we install a site.py along with Distutils under pre-1.6
# Python to take care of the current deficiencies in
# Python's library installation scheme?
#
# Currently, this method has hacks to distinguish POSIX from
# non-POSIX systems (for installation of site-local modules),
# and assumes the Python 1.5 installation tree with no site.py
# to fix things.
# Figure out actual installation directories; the basic principle
# is: ...
