Hmm. the usual place for python scripts installed with distutils in the 
python scripts dir. On Linux, I think that's usually something like 
/usr/local/bin. With an OS-X Framework build, it's something like:

/Library/Frameworks/Python......2.5/bin

(or something like that, inside the framework anyway -- not on a Mac now)

However, it might be more appropriate to put it in the GDAL "prefix" 
location, as, ideally, fact that the scripts are python is an 
implementation detail.

It may not matter much, as either location should be on the users PATH.
