Comment (by djvasi@…):

 It looks like the problem relates to this part of setup.py:


 {{{
 def force_to_usr_local(self):
     """
     A hack to decide if we need to "force" the installation directories
     to be under /usr/local.  This is because Mac Os X Tiger and
     Leopard, by default, put the libraries and scripts in their own
     directories under /Library or /System/Library.
     """
     return (sys.platform[:6] == 'darwin' and
             (self.install_dir[:9] == '/Library/' or
              self.install_dir[:16] == '/System/Library/'))
 }}}

 It assumes that since my prefix is in /Library, it must be a problem. But
 there's no particular reason I shouldn't be able to put my MacPorts prefix
 there!
