PyQt 5.8 is done and works on Linux and Mac OS X -- will be tested on Windows with daily build.

Python 3.6 breaks the toolshed. The _scan_installed function to build the metadata for the installed bundles, doesn't find anything, and thus no tools start. The changes to build Python 3.6 are the features/py36 branch (ie., the git flow py36 branch).

Branch features/py36 now works for Windows.

Had to upgrade distutils from 0.2.3 to 0.2.4. I took the opportunity to upgrade everything to latest except for grako and networkx. grako may be updatable since the latest is newer than the last time we tested. networkx is used by contacts so TomG will have to take a look.
