What does one need to tell setup.py to make sure CHANGES.txt is

didn't do anything special.
Do you mean available in the unpacked sdist, or as part of the
installation? I don't think any of README, README.txt, CHANGES,
CHANGES.txt (from the root of the distribution, not from inside the
package) are actually installed. If they are, I'd love to know where.
By default READM(.txt) is installed in a source distribution. Anything
else in the root (aside from setup.py of course and source files
themselves) aren't without extra setup chants. (These chants can be
figured out with some effort. I never remember them, so, if I want to
do something like this, I have to figure them out again or try to find
an example with them.)
Actually, no package data is ever included unless you're either
* working from an svn checkout, in which case setuptools will use the
list of which files are in svn and which aren't as a hint of what to
include and what not
* creating a MANIFEST.in file to tell setuptools what to include explicitly.
