[issue10642] site.py crashes on python startup due to defective .pth file

If the problem is in site.py it doesn't sound like a distutils bug at all.  I remember Victor doing something that changed the error handling/reporting when importing site.py, so I'm adding him as nosy.  I thought that was only in 3.x, though.  Does this not fail in 2.6?
