[Distutils] Struggling with a modular buildout configuration

[Lele Gaifax]

Hi,

I just pushed an even simpler test case that shows the "defect":

  https://github.com/lelit/buildout/commit/1dc3d6af0b6326500ad72798352dd1537364b5ac

that hopefully will help spotting the bug (or maybe my bad usage of the
extends functionality :-)

I already tried to tweak the _update_section() function, but without
success: AFAIU, with the test above at some point the destination
section (`s1` in the function) contains *both* a "egg" and a "egg +"
keys, so the line

  # Find v1 in s2 first; it may have been defined locally too.
  v1, note1 = s2.get(key, s1.get(key, ("", "")))

where `key` is "egg" ignores the s1['egg +'] value...

I'll try to spend some more hours on it.

Thanks and bye, lele.
