No worries!

As a side note, I have been using:

python setupegg.py develop --user

for the past year with very few headaches.  It makes an egg.lnk file (in the
~/.local directory) that points back to the current code directory.  Some
things might get wonky with respect to things that have to be recompiled,
but for pure python changes, it works very nicely.  I can't remember if it
works in RHEL5, though...
