actually yes that was the same error (I should have search trac first,
although I wasn't sure if tickets for this branch/mercurial where
supposed to go in there)

biggest problem right now is that the instructions at actually tell
you to build an egg.
http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/MultipleRepositorySupport so it's broken
and you are supposed to use it that way :)

it does not work for me as a zipped egg becuase __name__ is mangled
inside the eggs. As you said zipsafe will probably fix it but then the
"traditional" way of installing trac plugins will be broken. I believe
something along the lines of
pkg_resources('tracext.hg','locale') should fix it but I'm simply not
sure. I'll try to consult with someone I know that knows setuptools...
