Comment(by zooko):

 Oh, by the way, I see that our collection of binary eggs is commented-out
 in [source:setup.cfg].  Could you please try commenting-in the line that
 tells {{{setup.py}}} to look in a certain directory on the tahoe test grid
 for binary eggs?

 The reason it is commented-out is that the tahoe test grid is too
 unreliable (it sometimes stalls for tens of minutes due to some transient
 storage server having disconnected without sending a TCP FIN packet, I
 think).  If commenting that in fixes your build issue then maybe we could
 copy all those binary eggs over to the volunteer grid.
