look at this:
http://codespeak.net/pypy/dist/pypy/doc/getting-started-python.html#installation

basically, you could do something like this:

/opt/pypy/bin/pypy-c
/opt/pypy/lib-python/...
/opt/pypy/pypy/lib/...

or like this:

/usr/local/bin/pypy
/usr/local/share/pypy-1.1/lib-python/...
/usr/local/share/pypy-1.1/pypy/lib/...

ciao,
Anto
