@Ronald Ah, interesting, I missed that.

In my experience, distutils is pretty static and it's not particularly common to merge changes into it. Whether or not this is in scope for distutils, it's definitely in scope for setuptools - do you mind opening an issue on the setuptools tracker? https://github.com/pypa/setuptools
