Comment:

 Nope, it's nothing to worry about. It's some sort of setuptools-triggered
 noise. Nevow can optionally use Twisted, and includes a file that makes it
 look like it's related to twisted (a plugin of some sort, I think), and I
 think this confuses setuptools.

 We have a test that looks for noise like this
 ({{{RunNode.test_client_no_noise}}} in
 source:src/allmydata/test/test_runner.py), which is marked "TODO", which
 basically means it will nag us about it forever until we find some way to
 fix it (possibly by dumping nevow altogether, or dumping setuptools
 altogether, or by spending a lot of time fixing one or both).
