Looking at a RECORD file installed by pysetup (on 3.3 trunk, on
Windows) all of the filenames seem to be absolute, even though the
package is pure-Python and so everything is under site-packages.
Looking at PEP 376, it looks like the paths should be relative to
site-packages. Two questions:

1. Am I reading this right? Is it a bug in pysetup?
2. Does it matter? Are relative paths needed, or is it just nice to have?

Oh, and a third question - where is the best place to ask these
questions? Now that packaging is in core, is python-dev OK? Or should
I be asking on the distutils SIG or the packaging developers list?

Thanks,
Paul.
