Summary: setup.py ignores env and uses wrong libs

Initial Comment:
tcl/tk and lot's of other libs reside in /opt/lib and
/opt/include on my system. CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS reflect
this. python doesn't find anything in /opt, though, as
setup.py completely ignores this.

To debug this, I added a print libdirs after the line:

        lib_dirs = self.compiler.library_dirs +
['/lib', '/usr/lib']

and found that "lib_dirs" contains "/usr/local/lib",
which is completely bogus (but not wrong) (prefix is
/opt/python, my compiler doesn't search for /usr/local
etc.), "/lib" and "/usr/lib".

My system:

linux (2.4), glibc-2.2.5, every package is in
/opt/packagename, symlinked to common subdirs in
/opt/lib etc,,

LDFLAGS=-L/usr/app/lib -L/opt/lib
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/app/include -I/opt/include
CFLAGS=-O3 -g -pipe -march=pentium -mcpu=pentiumpro
-momit-leaf-frame-pointer

I don't think this is a bug. If you use a certain
configuration not supported by setup.py, you need to edit
Modules/Setup manually.
