[Trac] PYTHONPATH issue when setting up project environment

[Matthew Good]

This seems to be an issue with using the Windows .exe installer.  It's
not actually the PYTHONPATH that is the problem, it's the file
siteconfig.py (which should be in d:\python23\lib\site-packages\trac). 

Edit this file to fix the paths.

This file is normally generated by distutils when you install Trac to
store the paths of the Trac resources.  Unfortunately there seems to be
a problem with this in the new Windows .exe installer.
