When I built Twisted, I noticed that 'python2.7 setup.py build' created
_c_urlang.so in the wrong place:

$ find . | grep _c_url
./twisted/protocols/_c_urlarg.c
./build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7/_c_urlarg.so
./build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.7/twisted/protocols/_c_urlarg.o

I noticed the same problem when I built Mercurial 1.3, too.

This happens with svn r73778, but not svn r73145 (June 2). I don't know
which commit caused the problem. I don't know if the problem is in 3.x too.

Related to #6365. I've added a test to make sure twisted builds with
'build' and 'build_ext -i'.

Fixed in r73790 and propagated in 2.6/3.1/3.2. 

Thanks for the feeback !

(I am also adding twisted in my buildbot to make sure trunk creates a
similar binary dist than 2.6)
