I can reproduce this issue with setuptools 0.6c11 and (0.6 branch) trunk and Distribute in a virtualenv under 2.6, so this is definitely an existing bug in all versions. It's looping on one dependency and I don't know why yet, it's quite hard to debug and understand.
The fix that was done some time ago to keep the working env state is not working for that case. I will continue to look for the problem in the upcoming days.
