...just in time for the Python 2.0b1 feature freeze, Distutils 0.9.2 has
been released.  Changes since 0.9.1:

  * fixed bug that broke extension-building under Windows for older
    setup scripts (not using the new Extension class)
      
  * new version of bdist_wininst command and associated tools: fixes
    some bugs, produces a smaller exeuctable, and has a nicer GUI
    (thanks to Thomas Heller)
		
  * added some hooks to 'setup()' to allow some slightly sneaky ways
    into the Distutils, in addition to the standard "run 'setup()'
    from a setup script"
