distutil2 is almost identical to distutils as far as compilation goes,
so I am not sure why it would help the OP.

@Lukas: if you want to check for compiler flag support, the best way
to do it in distutils is to use the config support: look in particular
in the try_compile/try_link methods. The schema is basically:

# code may refer to e.g. a trivial extension source code
try_compile(code) # check that the current option set is sane
for each additional flag you are interested:
   save compiler option
   add the additional flag
   if try_compile(code) == 0:
       restore compiler option

cheers,

David
