I thought I'd already removed distribute as part of 0.5.3a! Will try to
reproduce.

The problem is as a side effect of pip - it install non-alpha releases by
default. In other words, it is trying to install version 0.2.0, which is
ancient. Version 0.2.0 uses an old problematic version of distribute, hence
the error you were getting. As all recent version of RPi.GPIO are alpha, you
have to use the --pre flag with pip to install them.
To successfully install the latest version of RPi.GPIO, I had to:
Fresh install of Arch
# pacman -S python
# pacman -S python-pip
# pacman -S gcc
# pip install RPi.GPIO --pre
I need to do the next release without the 'a' to fully fix this issue. It is
mature enough not to be considered alpha any more!
