+"""distutils.errors
+
+Provides exceptions used by the Distutils modules.  Note that Distutils
+modules may raise standard exceptions; in particular, SystemExit is
+usually raised for errors that are obviously the end-user's fault
+(eg. bad command-line arguments).
+
+This module safe to use in "from ... import *" mode; it only exports
+symbols whose names start with "Distutils" and end with "Error"."""
