A few things:
1. I don't think you're using the current wheels.
Try with --clear-app-data (added to the SRU instructions in the description).
2. What this still doesn't tell me is how *pip* is impacted by this breakage.
LP: #1904945 means that we won't expose pep517 to the virtualenv outside of pip, any more.
So, pep517 being broken outside of pip wouldn't be an issue.
@Rick: Thanks for the response.
