Not that I think current usage patterns matter since moving from setup.py 
to a static file, but that's not really true. The wide proliferation of setuptools
shows pretty clearly that people are fine using distutils as a library. Even
beyond that the popularity of pip shows that as well since very few people
even directly interact with setup.py at all except to create the distributions.
