[Python-Dev] PEP 376

Just noticed that it's defined in distutils. But it's not documented there :-(

Maybe just add a bit to the PEP saying that the class exists in
distutils, give a brief summary, and say that as part of implimenting
the PEP it will be formally documented. (Even though distutils is a
mess of undocumented functionality, I don't think that you can base
new work on undocumented internals - you should document them first,
or things will never get any better :-()
