(I wish setuptools would prefer v1.4.1 in binary egg format over v1.4.5 in
sdist format when I'm requiring >= v1.1.0).
Until your wish is fulfilled, perhaps it would be good to offer a "binary-
only" 1.5.0 release that does not have the sdist line in setup.cfg. For
systems without development tools installed, removing the sdist line will
make the installation more likely to succeed.
Even better (for Windows) is to get a working py2exe installer that "Just
Works", of course.
