[mod_python] Install mod_python without being root?

I've succssfully compiled mod_python, but my unix admins are reluctant
to have it install anything into the official location of Python yet.

Is there a way to install the required libs or whatever binaries are
needed for mod_python to an alternate location?  Or, at least be able to
identify what make install is doing?

Thanks for all the help.
