Regarding the /etc/pyxrc you only need the install-data option. And
that's documented in the INSTALL file, which I think is the Right
Thing (tm). I think, the install-lib feature is nothing we should take
care when documenting in the INSTALL, since that's something
absolutely standard in setup.py and it's not the common case we should
take care documenting.

Last but not least you may have a look in the INSTALL and learn about
using PyX without installing it at all. You can build extension
modules in-place and than PyX can be run without installation at all.
That's by the way the solution we're using in PyX development (and I
myself never install PyX system-wide to don't get confused by
different versions laying around).
