Looking again at your explanation of the cause in compat.py ... # windows detection, covers cpython and ironpython WINDOWS = (sys.platform.startswith("win") or (sys.platform == 'cli' and os.name == 'nt')) I notice that the version of pip installed by Jython 2.7.0 is older than this, and does its Windows detection in-line in locations.py, where the error arises. In this version there is some Jython-specific detection, but not consistently. Maybe idea #1 is feasible (fix pip).
