Problem installing with precompiled FFTW 3.2.2 Windows DLLs

[Hanno Starling]

I set the environment variable FFTW_PATH to the Windows FFTW dlls for installing PyFFTW 3-0.2.1 on Windows XP.
FFTW_PATH=E:\qqqqq\wwww\abcdefgh
The error is ...can't copy....
the dll
from ...\src\templates\fgh\
Somehow it takes characters from the trailing directory in FFTW_PATH, appends that to \src\templates and looks for the dlls in that nonexisting directory.
It skips the first five characters in that directory.
I fixed it by using an FFTW_PATH with less than six characters in the trailing directory.
I had to copy the dlls to ...\src\templates\.
Then I could install successfully using python setup.py install.

Mm weird, I'll look into this.

This smells like a bug in distutils, I've committed a workaround in trunk
