> Whaddya think?  Good enough bandaid solution?

-1. First of all, a bandaid for the specific problem is already in place:
you can configure everything through Modules/Setup, in particular if you
find that setup.py doesn't do the right thing. Modules/Setup allow much
more detailed changes than what your changes to setup.py offers, plus it
is an established solution to this problem.

Furthermore, your specific patch seems incomplete: You have to run setup.py
manually, which means that you cannot use a plain "make". There should be
atleast minimal interfacing to Makefile.pre.in for this patch to be acceptable.

Regards,
Martin
