Thanks, Fred.  'setuptools' is now checked in under 
python/nondist/sandbox/setuptools; you can install it and run its test 
suite via 'python setup.py test'.

Also, if nobody has any objections to my patch for SF bug #743267, maybe I 
should apply that too, at least on the head.  I'm not sure my CVS-Zen is 
strong enough yet to try backporting to the 2.3 bugfix branch, though.  :)
