Are we on the same wavelength?
My normal/unaltered PYTHONPATH is not set.
I'm not having any problems with waf.  My problem is running ntpq after 
installing it.  Without setting PYTHONPATH in my environment, I get things 
like:
  ntpq: can't find Python NTP library -- check PYTHONPATH.
  No module named ntp.packet
I'm pretty sure it works without it on some systems.
