Yes that's what I did: 
  ./configure --prefix=<user-wriable-dir>
Now I have also set the $PYTHONHOME env variable to a user 
writable directory before calling configure. 
When I do that, configure sets
  '${prefix}/lib/python2.5/site-packages' as the packages dir,
instead of  
  '/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages'.
But now make fails after compiling a few files:
