A hack to augment sys.path with the build/lib.<platform> directory
created by Andrew's setup.py script, *if* we're actually running from
the build directory. (The test for that: whether the sys.path[-1]
ends in "/Modules".)
This has one disadvantage: it imports a fair amount of code from the
distutils package, just in order to be able to calculate the correct
pathname. See if I care. :-)
