You might try workingenv: http://svn.colorstudy.com/home/ianb/workingenv

If you use it, scripts installed via setuptools/easy_install will adjust 
their path automatically.  In a CGI script you can do:

   #!/usr/bin/env python -S
   import sys
   sys.path.insert(0, 'path/to/lib/python')
   import site
   ... other stuff ...

I'm not 100% sure how well that #! line will work on all operating 
systems; I haven't tested this out much on different systems.
