Summary: PackMan needs to be able to install outside site-packages
Initial Comment:
PackMan needs to be able to install system-wide packages
in /Library/Python/2.3/site-packages, in the event that the
normal $prefix/lib/python2.3/site-packages is not writeable.
That directory also needs to be put on sys.path (for
framework OSX builds only) if it exists, similarly to ~/
Library/Python/2.3/site-packages.

It turns out this is less of a problem than I feared: site-packages
is a symlink to a place that is writable. There is still a problem
when a distutils-based package tries to install extra header files,
but that will have to be solved after 2.3b2.
