To make it explicit: grabbing this bootstrap and using it is safe for every
project.  And it is the only change you need to make!

- No need for a specific patched buildout release or so.

- No need to mention distribute anywhere in your dependencies.

- No worries about other buildouts: distribute doesn't touch the setuptools
  egg in your (shared) buildout eggs directory.  They'll continue working just
  fine.

- It just transparently works like a charm :-)

When you want the advantages (svn 1.6 support and other bugfixes) of
distribute outside of buildout: do the normal "easy_install distribute".
0.6.4 should work fine there (but do of course update when 0.6.5 is out).
