Comment (by nejucomo):

 While experimenting with #2255 and chatting about packaging at the LAFS
 summit, we began searching for `setup_requires` cases, which present a
 difficult wart when attempting to implement a peep based installation.

 We immediately found the line in question [[ticket:2066#comment:3|Daira's
 comment 3 above]] and I realized that the line in question may no longer
 be necessary *if* we upgrade the Nevow dependency, which may be feasible -
