New submission from Korijn Van Golen :
distutils' Distribution class has a method has_ext_modules() that is used to
determine if any extension modules are included in a distribution. There
remains a call site in distutils.command.install where
self.distribution.ext_modules is directly tested for truthiness, rather than
calling has_ext_modules. This causes inconsistent behavior, e.g. when
overriding has_ext_modules in a Distribution subclass.
