I figured out the problem after writing the test. This is not a problem
on distutils side but on setuptools side. If you remove setuptools from
lxml setup.py, it'll work perfectly.
setuptools patches distutils's build_ext and remove temporarely the
inplace option, so the code on distutils side that goes with the inplace
option is not called...
extract from setuptools.
{{{
def run(self):
"""Build extensions in build directory, then copy if --inplace"""
old_inplace, self.inplace = self.inplace, 0
_build_ext.run(self)
self.inplace = old_inplace
if old_inplace:
self.copy_extensions_to_source()
}}}
So this problem should be fixed on setuptools side.
