pip is atrocious/dangerous on any system without virtualenv. I've managed to sort this by using virtualenvs where I can and homebrew Python + packages when I can't (numpy, etc.).
Two things really help: pipsi (https://github.com/mitsuhiko/pipsi https://github.com/mitsuhiko/pipsi), which installs tools inside their own virtualenv and PIP_REQUIRE_VIRTUALENV, which stops pip from working outside a virtualenv.
