So there already is a lot of porting effort needed to support a reasonable number of targets. I don't think it takes a lot of effort to keep distutils running with Python 2.3 and 2.4. Speaking of which; is there any reliable statistics of Python versions and platforms? Would be really interesting!
Reliable statistics are hard to obtain, since Python is distributed along with many Unix distributions, as part of many products, and also in source form (where you basically lose any platform or Python version information).
FWIW, these are the stats for our OSS Python package egenix-mx-base:
Downloads egenix-mx-base 3.0 in 2008: Python 1.5.2: 0 Python 2.0 : 0 Python 2.1 : 31 Python 2.2 : 54 Python 2.3 : 483 Python 2.4 : 3368 Python 2.5 : 7504 Source ZIP : 4238 Source TGZ : 2918
These are just downloads, so likely new installations (the 3.0 version was released about one year ago). It's hard to tell what the installed user base looks like, esp with respect to the used Python versions.
