Hey, how'd I miss that?!

Right. I guess we need someone to help with that one though... I'll do some 
reading around tomorrow and see what I can dig up.

Hmm... I thought those were already fixed.

Ditto.

I agree. I'm sure it's a useful addition, but not something I want to add 
between beta 3 and RC1.

Seems so. I haven't heard it being confirmed by either Peter Hull or Thomas 
Harte.

Good point. I think I asked Peter Hull what he thought would be the best 
idea and he suggested just sticking with /usr/local. That's probably fine 
for people with a *nix background, but people (just) coming from Windows 
are faced with a double problem here: running a new operating system and 
using a library that doesn't use the normal convention for the platform. 
I'm not sure how to tackle that one.
