commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=a7e71716f5fed63e3634e40eb3f069d2baebfbf1
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Buildroot generates Linux systems, so there is no need to have
MS Windows executables in there.

This reduces the target filesystem size by about 600kB:
$ du -hcs usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/command/wininst-*.exe
60K usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/command/wininst-6.0.exe
64K usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/command/wininst-7.1.exe
60K usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/command/wininst-8.0.exe
192K    usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/command/wininst-9.0.exe
220K    usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/command/wininst-9.0-amd64.exe
596K    total
