Just to be clear: what about for the build of the interpreter itself, i.e. its setup.py for the standard library extension modules?  Will the existing distutils code continue to be used for that?  Or is it being replaced by code in packaging?  If so, have Python builds been tested yet on the various platforms?

It will remain distutils-based for now. Moving it to packaging is not our top priority.
