The commonest example is that distribute provides setuptools.
I would regard that as a special case - I'm not thinking about forks. Can you
point to more substantive cases?
Just jumping in here, but I don't think that the distribute
distribution providing the setuptools module is indicative of a fork.
It's an example of a distribution that does not contain a module name
you'd expect it to, based on the distribution name. PIL is another
example: from PIL import Image. And in the case of PIL at least, the
fork distribution name does not change anything: pip install Pillow;
from PIL import Image.
