Filipe Laíns <la...@riseup.net> added the comment:

The fix that was merged seems a bit hacky to me -- it changes the _is_gcc check 
so that it returns True on clang.

Even though distutils is deprecated and no longer synced externally, if someone 
needs to issue a similar fix, this might trip them over.

I would recommend replacing it with [1], from the now externally maintained 
distutils module.
