py-altgraph 0.6.7 build fails because of py-setuptools version mismatch

Got this while attempting py-altgraph install:

$ sudo port install py-altgraph
--->  Fetching py-altgraph
--->  Attempting to fetch altgraph-0.6.7.tar.gz from http://cheeseshop.python.org/packages/source/a/altgraph/

Error: Target com.apple.build returned: shell command "cd "/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports_python_py-altgraph/work/altgraph-0.6.7" && /opt/local/bin/python2.4 setup.py build" returned error 2
Command output: The required version of setuptools (>=0.6c3) is not available, and
can't be installed while this script is running. Please install
 a more recent version first.

(Currently using setuptools 0.6c2 (/opt/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages))

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Workaround was to have python's easy_install update setuptools.
