Ah, higery’s code already has an answer for me: it writes *two* paths in the 
.pth file, one to the build dir (so that .dist-info is found) and one to the 
modules root (for modules, built in place).  Anyone sees a problem with that?  
(For example huge sys.path.)

In this scheme, when Python modules are edited, changes are visible instantly, 
when C modules are edited, a call to build_ext is required, and when the 
metadata is edited, build_distinfo is required.  Does that sound good?
