Is there some reason the ebuild uses distutils instead of pip? Perhaps just a legacy thing as that was how the first django ebuild was created?
Mostly, a curiosity post.

emerge django vs. pip install django
I saw the new ebuild for django 1.7 and decided to uninstall the one installed via pip and go with this one. I'm assuming that the Gentoo community decided that the bundle created by the django dependency list is a useful collection for use with django.
