I've got an additional patch to this function that also adds support for the 
package_data option, for extension modules (at least as they are currently 
specified in setup.cfg), and adds support for running setup_hook.

The only problem is that it's starting to copy more and more from 
distutils2.config.Config.  The difference being that it's still simpler, and 
doesn't depend on much else from distutils2.  The reason being that I'm using 
this in my own packages so that I can distutils2-like setup.cfgs, but still 
install with normal distutils and/or Distribute without depending on distutils2 
in its entirety.

I'm wondering if there might be a better way to proceed, or if this sort of 
compatibility support is even useful to anyone else.
