Uhm... why not? :-)
If someone could give me some pointers on nailing down the issue I
could give it a try (note: never seen distutils internals before).
My only concern is that it's not rare that patches provided by users
are often ignored and they remains stagnant on the Python bug tracker.
I just wouldn't spend time on that for nothing.
