Ah, my fault. I tested only with 2.3. With 2.4 I can reproduce the error.
I attached a quick fix that you can try out. If it works for you, I

The 2.4 distutils should also work under Python 2.3.

PS: There are still some 'distutils' imports in your setuptools/
directory. You should change them also to 'setuptools' just to be sure
that only those methods in setuptools are used.
