New submission from Karsten Petersen :
[Guido asked me to file this as an issue.]
On Mac OS X Apple has configured the system provided Python to also
search this global site-packages directory:
/Library/Python//site-packages/
This allows users to install their own system-wide packages there
Karsten Petersen added the comment:
Sorry, I should have made this clear: I am NOT proposing to add this
patch. I meant this more to show what related changes were done by
Apple. Some of these clearly wouldn't even work like this if applied to
a Python not installed in /System/Li
