Let's try to look if we can get it into cbflib package like Fred suggested.

I think the way it build now it just copies boost into top directory so both
could work but I might have overlooked something.

I think it's easier to use one setup.py and split the files up with
package.install files. You can look into python-cctbx.install to see how it
works. dh_install takes care of the right place.

extra_path just creates a directory cctbx and adds a cctbx.pth file. This way we
keep all modules in on path. It was just cosmetics but we can remove it.

Have you checked out my commit? I changed a little bit your scripts and I think
this should already work. If you don't like my changes then tell me or fix it.

Nice! Can you also think of a way to get a nice clean target. I guess the
build2.7 directories are not cleaned.

Or you can push your changes in right away into the git so you be
acknowledged ;).
