 We can pass PYTHONPATH from the boss as an environment variable.

 One possible problem is that the python scripts running in the "source
 mode" still refer to the installed paths, which may be confused (e.g. a
 script may use an installed, old version of library in some case and use a
 new version only in the source tree in the other case).

 I believe all of the problem is solvable by a patch like the one attached.

 And, I still believe it's beneficial to allow the programs to run under
 the source tree.  It will reduce the steps of code-build-try-fix by
 eliminating the need of 'make install'.

 If this is convincing, I'll apply the same fix to other scripts.
