Installing http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.4/Python-2.4a1.msi,
applying your patch to the CVS version and copying the distutils
directory over C:\Programme\Python24\Lib\distutils gives me the
following:

c:\programme\python24\python setup.py bdist --formats=wininst
running bdist
running bdist_wininst
running build
running build_py
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "setup.py", line 50, in ?
     package_dir={"ll": ""}
   File "c:\programme\python24\lib\distutils\core.py", line 150, in setup

   File "c:\programme\python24\lib\distutils\dist.py", line 951, in
