Distutils is undergoing heavy changes in the hands of Tarek Ziade. One of the changes is drastically improving the test coverage.
I would definitely discuss the problem with him (directly or on distutils-sig) as he will want to know about it - either to explain why the change is necessary and help you modify the pywin32 setup.py or to revert the change.
