Comment (by ronf):

 Ok - I checked the setuptools directory, and definitely found some
 weirdness. For instance, __init.py__ didn't exist on my system even after
 a setuptools reinstall, but there was a file called
 __init__.py..mp_1648743825. That generally happens when multiple packages
 have found conflicts in which port owns a given file. Even after wiping
 out everything in
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/lib/python3.10
 /site-packages/setuptools and doing a forced uninstall/reinstall, I'm
 still getting errors, though:

 I don't see anything about build_meta after manually cleaning out the
 setuptools site-packages dir. After that, "import setuptools.build_meta"
 worked on the original system, but the build is still failing, with the
 error about egg_info and some of the config options not being recognized:
