That's strange. scipy/distutils/log.py is there but 
scipy/distutils/misc_util.py isn't, both are python modules... you can try
   PYTHONPATH=. python scipy/distutils/system_info.py

Anyway, I have fixed system_info.py to detect atlas version when running
from scipy core source directory as python scipy/distutils/system_info.py.
May be that fix fixes also the above error.

I'll look into other scipy.distutils problems as well..
