I just tried doing the upload via the web interface, and got the same error. It appears that PyPI doesn't support uploading eggs, which is surprising because I could've sworn that the sprinters at PyCon said they were putting eggs on the list of allowed filetypes. But I just found the appropriate PyPI source code, and '.egg' isn't on the list of allowed file extensions, so I'll go ahead and file an RFE for this.
