[Distutils] Installing distribute with Python 3.0 / 3.1

[Hugo Lopes Tavares]

Maybe a problem related to __pycache__ folder created by compile call?
In python there is no longer execfile, and 2to3 converts execfile(filename) to:
execfile(compile(open(filename).read(), filename, 'exec'))
And it creates a __pycache__ folder. Maybe that's the problem..
