I have changed some things in your patch.  There are still two issues:

1) setting os.sep to \ in the tests is not enough to trigger the bug.  This means that the tests really test something only on Windows.  I’ll edit them to mock the OS layer and return paths with \, so that we can check that manifest or sdist does the conversion.

2) I am not sure we can actually change this in distutils, because of the compatibility policy.  The documentation does not say that the MANIFEST file should be portable, so I’ll ask on distutils-sig for feedback.
