AFAIK you can't add that subdirectory there without breaking 'import
libfdt' because the directory structure must match the module
structure.
I think it might be possible to achieve this though:
$PREFIX
`-- lib
`-- python2.7
`-- site-packages
|-- libfdt-1.4.5-py2.7.egg-info
`-- libfdt
|-- _libfdt.so
|-- __init__.py
`-- __init__.pyc
... but I'm not sure that's idiomatic either because now the name of
the native module changes from '_libfdt' to 'libfdt._libfdt'. There are
already existing similar (as in one .py + one .so) packages with the
same directory structure as what I'm trying to achieve:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/python-gamin/filelist
