Perhaps I should have been clearer - I meant "executable setup.py install", and as I understand it, it is a goal to get rid of that. Regarding "executable setup.py build", that's less of an issue than for installing, but IIUC, it is still not ideal. Many of the hacks that people have made around distutils/setuptools relate to building, not just installing, or am I wrong?
