Summary: Distutils should have a Setup parser

Initial Comment:
Setup files are handy for allowing user overrides.
I do a minimal parse in Python 2.1's setup.py, and Pete
Shinners wrote a more complete one for pygame's
config.py.  Support for
parsing Setup files should be added to the Distutils
API, so packagers can easily make overrides for 
C extension compile flags.

Because I thought priority 9 was lowest priority, not 
highest, of course!

Andrew, what's the point of setting the priority to 9 if it
won't get done before 2.2?

We can't release with outstanding bugs of priority 7 or
higher, but we're just going to lower the priority of this
item...
