Comment (by zooko):

 Here's a way to test whether I'm right about what I said in
 comment:38:ticket:1582:

 1. Make a directory named
 'C:/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'.

 2. chdir into it.

 3. Try to build *any package at all*.

 If I'm right, the build will fail, regardless of which package you try to
 build, because of this bug in setuptools. This is not pycryptopp's
 problem.
