I'd never even heard of .pydistutils.cfg. I've added a note to the FAQ pointing to it.
Then I looked at the distutils code, and noticed that there's also an optional distutils.cfg inside the package. So that made me wonder: we could install a symlink in /System/yaddayaddayadda/lib/python2.3/distutils/distutils.cfg that points to, say, /Library/Python/2.3/distutils.cfg, and put an (admin-editable) file there that directs scripts tot the right place system wide (/usr/local/bin by default, probably).
