New submission from Brett Cannon:

Right now there is a bunch of contorting with setuptools and coverage.py's 
checkout to get things in reasonable places, etc. Might be easiest to create a 
venv from the built checkout and then install both setuptools and the 
coverage.py checkout into the venv for easier setup/cleanup.

Might even be lucky enough that the venv can be left in place and simply have 
users do ``../cpython/python Tools/scripts/pyvenv --upgrade`` to have it start 
using their own built version so that the basic setup for at least setuptools 
works and then they only need to build coverage.py themselves (which is already 
scripted).
