Summary: sitecustomize.py not found

Initial Comment:
Under my configuration (Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32) the sitecustomize.py is not found in the current directory. I added some testing code into site.def execsitecustomize() and found out, that the current path is not part of sys.path, but later on in the main program it is.

I don't think that allowing sitecustomize.py to be run from the current
directory would be a good idea, as it gets executed automatically on any
invocation of the Python program (and it could contain arbitrary code).

You can put sitecustomize.py inside Lib or Lib\site-packages and it will
be picked fine.
