This __init__.py is included because it causes other breakage if
removed. Please see a previous discussion on removing this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/van.pydeb/+bug/619294
That bug contains a test case which fails when the __init__.py is
removed.
Background reading on the breakage:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2009-May/011730.html
Consistency in what is broken is probably more important than fixing one
thing only to break another;) So I'd rather we didn't try fix this until
the test case in the van.pydeb bug passes without the __init__.py.
