 brian thought that this was related to #229

 a quick scan of that seems to suggest it's something slightly different.

 this is after upgrading my mac to 10.5, and removing the old built-
 for-10.4 python from my path, and trying to 'make' build tahoe.

Comment:

 I believe this was due to http://bugs.python.org/setuptools/issue17 ,
 which was fixed in setuptools, but then regressed in distribute:
 https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/142/easy_install-will-
 install-a-package-that-is-already , but then was fixed in distribute.
 Therefore, we can close this as fixed.
