[Distutils] [build_scripts] executable

[Brian Zhou]

Hi all,

I'm working on some system packages for http://nslu2-linux.org optware with
setuptools (svn dev so I can use the --single-version-externally-managed).
Thanks to your hard work, so far it looks very promising.

However, since the platform I'm working on requires cross build, the python
on debian host /usr/bin/python2.4 should not be used for scripts in the
package. In particular we need all scripts in the package to have

    #!/opt/bin/python

As the first line. With traditional distutils, we can append the following
to setup.cfg

    [build_scripts]
    executable=/opt/bin/python

Can we add that back please?

Thanks,

-Brian Zhou
