You just have to give up in order to realize that this can be done
rather easily:

  from distutils.command.install_headers import install_headers

  class modified_install_headers(install_headers):

      def finalize_options(self):
	  install_headers.finalize_options(self)
	  self.install_dir = \
		  os.path.join(os.path.split(self.install_dir)[0],
                               'Scientific')

  setup( ... , cmdclass = {'install_headers': modified_install_headers})

Konrad.
