mxSetup.py, the module implementing all our distutils extensions,
is available in egenix-mx-base which is open source:

        http://www.egenix.com/products/python/mxBase/

Here's current snapshot:

or as egg

http://downloads.egenix.com/python/egenix_mx_base-3.2.0_20091006-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg

Note how the package name is mangled... easy_install requires this.
The file name also doesn't tell you that the above is for
a UCS2 Python build. Again, easy_install fails with that information
added to the "py2.6" version marker.

We're still tweaking the implementation a bit, but it's stabilizing
rather quickly.
