I can't build from the CVS tree right now (confirmed on Irix and OSX): 
setup.py crashes. Here's the stacktrace:

CC='cc' LDSHARED='ld  -shared -all' ./python -E ./setup.py build
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./setup.py", line 708, in ?
    main()
  File "./setup.py", line 702, in main
    scripts = ['Tools/scripts/pydoc']
  File "/ufs/jack/src/python/Lib/distutils/core.py", line 101, in setup
    _setup_distribution = dist = klass(attrs)
  File "/ufs/jack/src/python/Lib/distutils/dist.py", line 129, in __init__
    setattr(self, method_name, getattr(self.metadata, method_name))
AttributeError: DistributionMetadata instance has no attribute 'get___doc__'
