There has been no further feedback after Georg (thanks Georg), so I went
ahead and set “3rd party” for distutils2 bugs instead of 2.5-3.2, for
all the aforementioned reasons.  Bugs applying to distutils and
distutils2 have versions 2.7, 3.1, 3.2, 3rd party so that the
forward-port is not forgotten.

If you commit a change to distutils, sysconfig or pkgutil, it’s fine to
assign the forward-port to me or, if you can use Mercurial, to publish a
changeset somewhere and request a pull/import.

(Those versions changes sent a lot of email, but this had to be done.
Sorry for the inconvenience.)

Thanks again to Terry and Mark for their triage work.  Hope this helps!

Kind regards
