As PJE mentioned, it is indeed possible to walk the stack trace and rip out the original sys.argv (and its '--prefix' element) from the easy_install main.
Technically, I meant it's possible to walk back until you find a 'self' that's a different Distribution instance, at which point you can ask for an easy_install command and check for a prefix. You're probably better off doing that than trying to parse argv, especially since the prefix might be coming from a configuration file anyway.
