For me, it's more a matter of "OS X 10.6 already comes with setuptools; how can I mitigate the impact of this buggy unmaintained package on the systems I'm building to deploy on OS X?". Adding distribute to the mix, however good it is, doesn't help; I'm going to use a pure distutils solution. And I can't really install a bugfix release for the Python frameworks in /System; only Apple can do that.
