Comment (by daira):

 Replying to [comment:1 zooko]:
 > However, if we could think of another hack to generate binary eggs that
 work on at least the most common Linuxes, I would be willing to try it. It
 could be that switching from CPythonAPI to cffi would help, but that would
 work only for the dependent packages that we maintain (zfec and
 pycryptopp) and not the others.

 How would that help without a way to install a binary distribution of
 cffi?
