Well, on the other hand this is not documented so hacking it could have
been a safe way to ensure the wanted behavior.
The code in setup.py is still having parts for performing compilations
of the C-level module against different R versions (as done in RPy),
while basically what is currently done is compiling against one version
then consider it ok as long as the symbol table/exported names is not
changing.
The 2.0.x series is hoped to provide the experience to tell which way it
working, and the code cleaned up/modified accordingly for 2.1.0 (or
changes backported to 2.0.x)

?! Weren't you on a Linux machine ?
(aqua is for OS X, and your machine is amd64 - not something OS X is
known to be officially working on)

Did you try having the install clearly distinct by using the option
--prefix (and a setting PYTHONPATH accordingly) ?
