In case someone else does ;), the context is where people have run
"setup.py install" and therefore have had the spambayes scripts put into
their python scripts directory, rather than those that run them from a
separate spambayes directory.  (Installing into a separate directory was
discussed, but someone said that it would also have troubles.  It all
got over my head quickly ;)
