[issue5070] Distutils should create install dir if needed

[Jean-Paul Calderone]

Jean-Paul Calderone <exarkun at divmod.com> added the comment:

This isn't accurate.  distutils *will* create the directory if it does
not exist.  Perhaps you have setuptools installed?  setuptools disables
this behavior of distutils and forces you to create the directory manually.
