\item[(1)] Most Linux distributions include Python as a standard part of
the system, so \filevar{prefix} and \filevar{exec-prefix} are usually
both \file{/usr} on Linux. If you build Python yourself on Linux (or
any Unix-like system), the default \filevar{prefix} and
\filevar{exec-prefix} are \file{/usr/local}.

\file{C:\bslash{}Program Files\bslash{}Python} under Python 1.6a1,
1.5.2, and earlier.
