Found it! I will backport the fix to distutils now.

New submission from Malthe Borch:
When ``docutils`` are importable, distutils uses a reporter implementation that
incorrectly drops a return value from the ``system_message`` override (see
patch).

Thanks for the report and patch. I think a similar issue was reported for
distutils2 (maybe only orally, not on this tracker, I have to search). How did
you find the bug? In other words, can you add a unit test for this? :)
