New submission from Bar Harel <bzvi7...@gmail.com>:

Is distutils.version aware of the PEP440 epoch version modifier? I haven't seen 
any reference to this.

AFAIK pypa packaging does take it into consideration, but should the stdlib 
also care about it?

I would like to believe pip takes it into consideration but not sure if it uses 
distutils, or that setuptools have their own versioning scheme together with 
pkg_resources.
