New submission from Eli Bendersky <eli...@gmail.com>:

The documentation of:

distutils.archive_util.make_zipfile(base_name, base_dir[, verbose=0, 
dry_run=0]) 

Says:

  Create a zip file from all files in and under base_dir. The output zip file 
will be named base_dir + .zip. 

This isn't correct, as the name of the output file is "base_name + .zip"

The error exists both in the docstring of make_zipfile in 
distutils/archive_util.py and in the ReST documentation of the function
