Here is what I did:
1. I started with no pypirc
2. I ran register, it asked me for username, password
3. I chose to save it, it created a .pypirc
4. I ran register again, it asked me again for username, password, even
though this was saved already.

Looking at the code, it seems the problem is that the pypirc has a
section pypirc that lists the server, but the code reading it wants a
section distutils.
