#3699: setup.py develop no longer works

There is a two-step way for installing the development version of an
application on windows using setuptools:
1. Download the svn version of django using the svn client of your choice
(svn, tortoisesvn)
1. Run {{{python setup.py develop}}} on the application. This correctly
installs all scripts and links to the files.
Last time I installed django on windows this worked (about 6 months ago).
I tried it again today and it doesn't, which means I have to do a bunch of
really awkward manoeuvres, some of which are detailed on the install page,
to get it to work with my setup. It seems that [3906] took it back to
distutils, which I feel is a step backwards for everybody.
Any chance of having, at least, a conditional import of setuptools' own
setup?
