Comment(by macports.org@…):

 Why not {{{distribute0.6}}} for Distribute 0.6 and {{{distribute}}} for >=
 0.7?

 There are people who (still) want to actual setuptools, not distribute,
 because they feel it's been better tested and they're not confident in
 distribute yet. Furthermore, since he's been threatened of irrelevance PJE
 has started working on Setuptools again.

 As a result, I really don't think setuptools's code should just be
 replaced by distribute's in the {{{setuptools}}} port. Plus it'd be a lie.
