Summary: setup.py assumes existence of /usr/local

Initial Comment:
/usr/local doesn't exist on Max OS X, so the lines in 
setup.py at the start of detect_modules should 
propbably have:

if os.path.isdir('/usr/local/lib') and 
'/usr/local/lib' not in self.compilier.library_dirs:

etc.

Aha!  This was the bug I fixed as a side effect of other
work but then couldn't find in the tracker.

Please give as much detail as possible. What is the exact 
text of the warning message? Can you guess what program is 
generating it?

When I add a non-existing directory in my copy of 
setup.py, no disturbing warnings are produced.

It generates a warning, several lines long, for each 
compile command. Doesn't break, just makes the compile 
more verbose than necessary :)

Why is that a problem? What happens with the current code?
