Same for dev-python/pygments-1.4
Ok, updating dev-python/setuptools to 0.6.19 solves the issue.
So I guess we should restrict docutils to >=setuptools-0.6.19? Any thoughts from other python team members?
It was not a bug in dev-python/docutils, so no changes in dev-python/docutils should be made. Older versions of dev-python/setuptools already block newer versions of dev-lang/python.
Looks like we don't have anything left to do here.
