That case doesn't propose that the files be shipped in the binary product,
though, and given that the files appear to be useful only on the
development and building side of the distribution, it's not clear to me why
they should be shipped, never mind exported as interfaces.

The mysql and zope extensions also seem to be shipping the egg files.
