I'll bet this means that the 'zope.zip', 'python24.zip' would drop
you to "about 12500 - 10000 = 2500" failing opens.  That should be
an easy test: sys.path.insert(0, 'zope.zip') or whatever.
If that works and you want to drop even more, make a copy of zope.zip,
update it with python24.zip, and call the result python24.zip.
