I have turned my branch into a clean patch for default: 
https://bitbucket.org/Merwok/distutils2/changeset/076b15559290

Notes:

- You can diff configure.py against build.py and install_dist.py from an 
earlier revision to see what code has been moved where.

- Two tests for install_dist still fail, but this could be only the tip of the 
iceberg.  We need more tests there.  Installation paths is a tricky business, 
and we have to make sure configure does not break anything.

- I have changed install to install_dist in the code, tests and docs, but only 
in the part of the docs I added for configure.  The rest of the file is 
inaccurate, but that’s outside the scope of this patch.

- Some to-do features: distribute the configure.cache file in the dist-info 
directory (requires adding a hook system to install_distinfo); add info about 
the compiler type; probably more.
