I'm gonna try to work around it in buildout 2 by monkey-patching
distribute.

If you write the fix, maybe you can do it against Distribute ? we can
release it right after.
I'm not interested in fixing the scanning of pyc files, because:
1. buildout2 always unzips, because almost no one wants zipped eggs, and
2. Because the zip_safe setup flag is ignored by distribute.

3. Life is short. :)
I would be willing to fix distribute to not scan if the the
--always-unzip, -Z option is passed to it.
My monkey-patch simply replaces setuptools.command.bdist_egg.can_scan
with lambda:False.
My recommendation is is to just stop scanning, and don't zip installed
eggs unless
the zip_safe flag is present and true (and the --always-unzip option
isn't used). I'd be
willing to help with this, but I probably couldn't get to it for a
couple of weeks at the earliest.
This is, of course, backward-incompatible, although I doubt anyone
would really care.
That sounds like a good plan to me.
