I don't understand this comment, given that the PEP370 Implementation
section 2nd paragraph quite specifically refers to the use of
PYTHONPATH, I quote. "The user site directory is added before the system
site directories but after Python's search paths and PYTHONPATH. This
setup allows the user to install a different version of a package than
the system administrator but it prevents the user from accidently
overwriting a stdlib module. Stdlib modules can still be overwritten
with PYTHONPATH." What am I missing?
