since May 19, I get the exception below in the latest py3k site.py when trying to run a distutils build with it (building Cython). The changelog since the previous (working) CPython build is here:

The failing build is here:

This is on 64bit Linux. I tried with a clean checkout, no difference. Is this problem obvious to someone, is there anything that needs adaptation on our side (I hope not), or should I file a bug report?
It's a bug introduced by the packaging (Distutils2) feature. Thanks for finding it first. http://bugs.python.org/issue12131 -- Ned Deily, nad@acm.org
