I'm installing Mailman for the first time, and chose to try the beta. I'm
installing on a Mountain Lion Server, that was cleanly installed. I've since
updated the OS to 10.8.1
I got as far as 'python bootstrap.py' and it failed immediately with the
following traceback:

FWIW, I can open an interactive Python session and execute "import
pkg_resources" from the command line without error.
Any ideas?
Thanks—
