copy the interpreter (PREFIX/bin/python) and the support library
(PREFIX/lib/pythonX.Y/...) where PREFIX is the installation root and
X.Y is the version number.  e.g.

    /usr/local/bin/python
    /usr/local/lib/python2.1/...

if you cannot remember where you installed it, you can always ask
the interpreter itself:

    $ python
    >>> import sys
    >>> sys.prefix
    '/usr/local'
    >>> sys.version[:3]
    '2.1'
