Putting the actual code in a separate module sounds like a good plan, 
but why not have the Python installer provide this behavior by 
default? It's much less valuable if newbies have to learn Python path 
manipulation tricks before getting a nice environment.

BTW, you can put "import addosxlibpath" in a .pth file too.
