[Distutils] Odd thought

There may be another solution to the double-clicking-setup.py problem.

As there isn't a command line at all on the Mac I had to create a GetArgv() 
dialog that posts a dialog with options to the user and creates a command line.

The good news is that the distutils interface to getargs is *very* good: you 
have all possible arguments available with helptexts, etc.

So if someone ported this dialog to Windows you'd be all set: if setup.py is 
called without arguments you simply post the dialog.
