The very best hope of resolving that particular problem is distutils2. :-)

distutils2 is *already* available to the Python community, and whether 
or not there is a fixed release date it will have betas and then a 1.0 
release in the foreseeable future. The team working on it has made an 
enormous amount of progress. We're much better off as a development 
community putting our support and energy into distutils2 rather than 
pining for evolution of distutils.
