After I switch to 1.1.6 branch, it goes okay.

Hi Philip. I'm unable to replicate your findings. Is it possible you just got a corrupted copy of the file? I don't know how you would have gotten a corrupted copy, as it hasn't changed for some time. After I ran the command on Ubuntu Precise, I see this:

vagrant@precise64:~$ md5sum setuptools-1.1.7.tar.gz
1f33594d25d574a1640ffb84667c6759  setuptools-1.1.7.tar.gz
vagrant@precise64:~$ ls -l setuptools-1.1.7.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 682308 Nov  2 18:14 setuptools-1.1.7.tar.gz

It sounds to me like maybe you got a corrupted copy from the CDN or it was corrupted in download. Additionally, you're the only one who has reported the issue, so I suspect it's isolated to your environment or region.
