In case anyone's still interested in this, I found a pacman.conf option called NoExtract, which lets you tell pacman not to overwrite certain files and directories in the filesystem. So you could add the following line to /etc/pacman.conf:

NoExtract = /usr/bin/python

Actually it should be

NoExtract = usr/bin/python

without the root slash. sorry for the typo.
