Hmm, I think it needs $$DESTDIR in front of $$INCLUDE_SERVER. But this gets a
bit
confusing: the behavior is determined by python's setup.py, not anything we do
in
particular.
What happens if you set prefix to be a relative directory instead of an
absolute?
Does the code work properly? I don't think adding a leading slash is right in
that
case, though we'll have to explore what is.

You'll get an error from configure:
$ sh configure --prefix=whatever
configure: error: expected an absolute directory name for --prefix: whatever
So we don't need to worry about that case.

This looks like it was a bug in setup.py. We work around it now, as of svn
commit 461.
