Are you sure that you removed the build/ directory? Because if it wasn't there,
distutils would say that it was creating one:

[argparse]$ python setup.py bdist_dumb
running bdist_dumb
running build
running build_py
creating build
creating build/lib
copying argparse.py -> build/lib
installing to build/bdist.macosx-10.3-fat/dumb
running install
running install_lib
