[Distutils] Anybody to commit trivial fix?

[Tarek Ziadé]

Alright, it make sense to fix it at least for the 2.6 series,

I have added a unit test with your change in the ticket, and it seems
to fix the bug on my platform (Mac OS X)

Can you check on your platform that this test brakes when the fix is
not done ? and passes when the fix is done ?

Thanks
Tarek
