That looks like the same problem other people are seeing; the problem
is that the source you're building from lacks a proper
setuptools.egg-info/entry_points.txt. Are you building from revision
control directly, or from an sdist?
It's built from the bitbucket repo to provide the earliest possible
warnings. Whatever you push there gets tested.

A possible workaround is to build with a working version of setuptools
or distribute on sys.path when you run setup.py. The distribute
modules will get imported, but the egg-info will get picked up from
elsewhere, enabling the proper functionality. (Setuptools doesn't
have this problem because it includes the entry_points.txt and other
critical .egg-info files in its revision control.)
It's built with an almost pristine python, which has just pywin32 installed.
It would appear that either the entry_points.txt was recently removed,
or there was some other workaround for its absence which has recently
been removed; I have not had time to investigate, and in any case am
not that familiar with the distribute side of things.
Looks like running
python.exe setup.py test
is the right command to run the tests, isn't it?
