That's by design, I'm afraid. I like one top-level module to correspond to
one installable distribution. Flit also assumes that the wheels it's
building are pure Python, so they get -none-any tags.

Feel free to cannibalise code from flit to build your specific wheels,
though. It's relatively easy to create a wheel without lots of tooling. For
instance, I have a script that unpacks the Windows binary installers for
PyQt4, reassembles the files into wheels, and uploads them to PyPI:
