Hmmm.... very odd. This should work if ant is on your execution path.

This also should work. 'distutils' is a standard Python package.
Indeed, I have built those tools using Python 2.3.2 with no problems
whatsoever --- that is, using a Python 2.3.2 that I built and
installed myself to a private install directory, and then added the
'bin' directory to my PATH.

How did you install Ant and Python? Are they just standard site
installs? It looks like they might have been broken by separating the
binaries from certain accompanying libraries and modules. I'm almost
certain this must be the case for your Python install.
