Overriding 'upload' isn't practicable as there isn't a hook for it. The
comment is built right before uploading the file.

You could add a line to the package description on the PyPI site manually,
like "the Windows binary downloads on this site statically include libxml2
2.6.XY and libxslt 1.1.Z". Not sure you're currently allowed to do so, though.
