The way to override defaults for setup.py commands is not documented. For example, to change to name of build and dist dirs from setup.py, the following entry should be added to setup parameters:

    options={
        'build': {'build_base': '__build__'},
        'sdist': {'dist_dir': '__build__/dist'},
    }

An example would be extremely helpful at
