Ha!  Your reply jogged my memory.  MvL mentioned exactly the potential for this backwards incompatibility here: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2010-December/106351.html when talking about whether other API changes could go into distutils to support accepted PEPs.

tarek, eric, since python-3.2 is now out, I assume that you're going to want to port distribute rather than back the changes out of distutils.  Do you want a bug report or is this high enough priority that you're already working on it?
