Have you tried it using plain setuptools (0.6c11 or greater)?  There are some bugs in distribute regarding recursive build-time dependencies that were fixed in setuptools last October, but which are still outstanding in distribute.

Please can you point us to the issue in the tracker and the commit where that fix happened ?

I'd be glad to fix it if this happens to be true.

Yes, that still stands. I am curious to see that fix (issue+commit) and I'd be glad to fix it if this happens to be true. Or this is a secret fix of yours, hidden in some kind of big commit without any comment or test ? :) -- Tarek Ziadé | http://ziade.org
