Screwing with purelib and platlib is a terrible idea if you ever have multiple versions of Python installed, because they will all use the same .pydistutils.cfg. The standard Python 2.3.0 already puts its purelib and platlib there anyway (indirectly via symlink, but it still goes there), so it's not ever going to actually do anything helpful.
Okay. At some point, that symlink got blown away on my machine, so I put in the install-*lib entries. <fixing up the symlink now>
If that symlink got blown away, /Library/Python/2.3 shouldn't have ended up in sys.path (unless you jigger that in elsewhere).
wxPython is the likely culprit. Some of the wxPython installers seem to enjoy breaking Python :) I'm pretty sure this has been fixed since, though.
