It's not.   https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/208 is an incorrect
fix; the pkg_resources code was correct, and the documentation was wrong.
 So distribute 0.6.23 actually introduces a bug, relative to setuptools.

As it happens, the behavior described in the doc was changed a long time ago
because people weren't reading the docs and packages existed in the field
using '-rc' tags, so I fixed the problem in pkg_resources, but missed that
there was a reference in setuptools.txt to this behavior.
