Import setuptools first and use numpy.distutils.core.setup(). The
install_requires checking doesn't happen until easy_install, so nothing should
be stomped on by numpy.distutils. setup_requires also seems to work (not shown
here). I don't know why the

  $ python -c "import setuptools; execfile('setup.py')" build

form didn't work for you.

[testf2py]$ ls
setup.py subr.f   subr.pyf
[testf2py]$ cat setup.py
import setuptools

from numpy.distutils.core import setup
from numpy.distutils.misc_util import Configuration

config = Configuration(name='subr')
config.add_extension('subr',
                     sources=['subr.pyf'],
                     )

kwds = {'install_requires': ['DoesNotExist'],
    }
kwds.update(config.todict())

setup(**kwds)
