detecting non-installed copies of bzr

Seems like there are multiple use cases for knowing if bzr is installed
or not:
- plugin path (non installed copies shouldn't load installed plugins),
installed copies and .exe copies should load plugins from the python
stdlib dir
- warnings and errors might change their appearance for installed bzr's
So I'd like to check we have the right set of cases to cater for.
I think there are three situations:
- 'installed' via setup.py or a .deb or $whatever packaging
- 'installed' via py2exe or .egg encapsulation
- 'not installed' - either an extracted tarball, or a bzr branch. May
have had the C extensions built.
Are there any cases I missed?
