Add formula for Distribute for Python.

"Distribute" is a "setuptools" replacement for Python, and is
a prequisite for "pip". Homebrew suggests using pip to install
Python modules required by a few brews.

This brew, by design, will only install against a Homebrew-built
version of Python, with instructions for installing
distribute against a custom Python.

puts <<-EOS
Homebrew's "distribute" formula is only meant to be installed against a Homebrew-
built version of Python, but we couldn't find such a version.
The system-provided Python comes with "easy_install" already installed, with the
caveat that some Python packages don't install cleanly against Apple's customized
versions of Python.
To install distribute against a custom Python, download distribute from:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute
unzip, and run:
/path/to/custom/python setup.py install
