I’m not sure how I feel about paths going to the parent directory. Your use 
case is not imaginary or contrived, but I’m uncomfortable with going out of the 
source tree.

Your setup script would work if the setup script was in the root of the source 
tree, right? In this case, I would requalify this as a doc bug. Can you test 
this solution (also with distutils-only code)? Thank you.
