As Liam suggested, you can walk the dir yourself and modify sys.path. The walk code could be in a site-customize.py file in site-packages so it will be run automatically every time Python starts up.
Oops, as Brian correctly pointed out, the correct file name is sitecustomize.py. Anything you put in this file will be run at startup. The file can be anywhere on the Python path; site-packages is a good place for it.
