Comment(by sadam):

 Nope.  It generalizes the path to the approriate version of python, but
 doesn't change that for 2.6 the pyexecdir is dist-packages instead of
 site-packages.

 print sys.path
 ['', '/home/sadam/checkout/sugar-jhbuild/install/lib/python2.6/site-
 packages/gtk-2.0', '/home/sadam/checkout/sugar-
 jhbuild/install/lib/python2.6/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python26.zip',
 '/usr/lib/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2',
 '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-old',
 '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages',
 '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-
 packages/PIL', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gst-0.10', '/var/lib
 /python-support/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gtk-2.0',
 '/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gtk-2.0', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6
 /dist-packages']
