This was wrong, of course. Sorry for the confusion, should simply be:

diff -c -r1.30 site.py
*** site.py     2001/07/12 21:08:33     1.30
--- site.py     2001/07/13 15:43:49
***************
*** 151,156 ****
--- 151,159 ----
              if os.path.isdir(sitedir):
                  addsitedir(sitedir)

+ if os.sep == ':':
+     sys.extinstallpath = os.path.join(sys.prefix, "lib", "site-packages")
+
  del dirs_in_sys_path

  # Define new built-ins 'quit' and 'exit'.
