Using PathVariable.PathIsDirCreate for all installation directories is a more 
natural choice as SCons will issue a warning if prefix is not a directory and 
will create it if is not there. However SCons make this check during 
configure (or the old scons step). If a user does not have write access to 
the handed directory, and it is not excisting, SCons configure will then 
fail.

I think it is therefore we have chosen not to use 
PathVariable.PathIsDirCreate, but PathVariable.PathAccept instead. We have 
then manually added a makedir during install if the directory is not 
excisting. But I am not sure this is done for all installation directories.

Any comments Johannes?
