So did you make bug reports about these issues (in the abstract, it's hard to see what is happening, and why it is: what precisely is "source", and what is the "python binary path" that is going into?; the bug report should provide these details). Without useful bug reports, there is no chance of improvements. With useful bug reports, there is unfortunately still little chance of improvements, since distutils is unmaintained. However, these issues seem to be easily fixable (if they aren't a pilot errors).
