distutils adds a requirement on its own

If I include a script in my setup.py that has the line #!/usr/bin/env 
python, then distutils, when running python setup.py bdist_rpm, adds an 
extra requirement to the RPM, namely for /usr/local/bin/python.

Why does it do that? I've already added a neat requirement for
python >= 2.1 in the setup.cfg...
