Wouldn't it be correct to specify --prefix (even if that means installing to
blah/site-packages) if the user has overridden prefix to make a personal
installation avoiding conflicting with distro packages? Otherwise PREFIX
allows a user to install Xen bits somewhere out of the way, except the
Python bits which will still blat the default install path.
Perhaps config/*.mk should define DEFAULT_PREFIX and PREFIX, and we omit
--prefix= to Python installer if the two are equal?
