I considered your change a step backwards right when you sent your original 
mail about it. I didn't dare complaining because I wasn't sure whether it'd 
actually break anything for us packagers, but seeing how it breaks things for 
Debian/Ubuntu, I can only stronly urge you to revert that unhelpful change, or 
at least make INSTALL_PYTHON_FILES_IN_PYTHON_PREFIX the default.
