[issue6884] Impossible to include file in sdist that starts with 'build' on Win32

This is a regex bug, and it just bit me again :-(

Because of this bug, you cannot currently build a bdist_egg (and therefore cannot install with easy_install) http://pypi.python.org/pypi/buildout-versions on windows.

The only choice I have is to rename the 'buildout_versions' package inside the distribution to something that doesn't start with 'build'.
