easy_install extra build arguments

I'm trying to install ReportLab, but I have no C compiler available to compile the rl_accel library. Using setup.py, I would add an extra argument like so:

python setup.py --rl_accel=no install

Is it possible to add extra arguments to easy_install so that I can reproduce the same effect?

easy_install reportlab [something here?]

not using the command, but you can write the configuration file:
