This looks like it can't be fixed. That import happens before *any* 
Python code is executed, within Py_Initialize(). I don't see *any* way 
to hook that import, unfortunately.

It happens only under Linux because in that system the Python binary 
contains a hardcoded prefix (like /usr/lib) that is always tried (see 
getpath.c in Python's source code). The Win32 getpath module instead 
doesn't have any hardcoded path.

I'm not really convinced this is a problem either -- I need further 
investigation.
