Summary: 2.1a2 misleading comment from "make install" (minor nit)

Details: Towards the end of the output from "make install" (using current -
Feb 16 - CVS) appears the following:

warning: install: modules installed to
'/usr/local/lib/python2.1/lib-dynload/', which is not in Python's module
search path (sys.path) -- you'll have to change the search path yourself

This is misleading, as /usr/local/lib/python2.1/lib-dynload is indeed in
the newly installed python's sys.path - just not in the sys.path of the
just-built-but-not-installed python.
