New submission from R. Andrew Ohana andrew.ohana@gmail.com:

Currently easy_install.pth will either contain paths relative to the site-packages directory, or the normalized_path. This is because the framework has been setup to use normalized paths everywhere. The patch should properly extend the current framework to make the argument to the egg-path option actually respected.
