i'm fine with that and willing to contribute patches, however i would feel 
better if whoever upstream was, was more supportive of the idea.
someone let me know.

a thought:
- it's true (as mentioned) that distclean isn't necessarily directly related to 
distributing python scripts, however (in my mind anyways) i see distutils as a 
replacement for common things we do in makefiles. so as a result if we did this 
we could get rid of makefiles and provide useful "action" targets such as 
distclean, test, etc... 100% pure python if needed...
