Is it possible to use EasyInstall to install relative to a
directory other than the site-packages directory in the manner
that the standard distutils does with the ``--root'' option?

I build a lot of packages under the OpenPKG portable packaging
system which is an RPM based system, and find EasyInstall fits

and complex things impossible''.
