in the Makefile that start with "./" to be absolute paths (with the

Cleaned up/simplified error-handling:
...
- DistutilsOptionError is now documented as it's actually used, ie.
to indicate bogus option values (usually user options, eg. from
the command-line)
- added DistutilsSetupError to indicate errors that definitely arise
in the setup script
- got rid of DistutilsValueError, and changed all usage of it to
either DistutilsSetupError or ValueError as appropriate
- simplified a bunch of option get/set methods in Command and
Distribution classes -- just pass on AttributeError most of
the time, rather than turning it into something else

Cleaned up use of sysconfig module a bit: don't import more names
...
than we actually use, and do actually use AR and SO.
Run ranlib on static libraries. (Should probably have a platform-check
so we don't run ranlib when it's not necessary, ie. on most modern
Unices.)

Don't bother reading config.h on NT or Mac OS. (It's not really needed

Define version_info to be a tuple (major, minor, micro, level); level

is a string "a2", "b1", "c1", or '' for a final release.

ihooks.ModuleLoader does not implement reload(mod) correctly:
