I'd rather install any new PIL version inside the Python instance provided
by Plone, rather than use the system python. Are there any step-by-step
instructions on how to make buildout download & use a newer version of a
package? My exploratory attempts to modify the buildout.cfg file did not
succeed.

While I would like to resolve this problem swiftly, I also want to leave
things in a maintainable state, so when I upgrade to the next Plone
version, things don't break again.

Check out Pillow ( http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow/1.6 ); it's a fork of PIL 1.1.7 that I have created and am offering to support for the Plone community for the foreseeable future.
