Read this: http://tarekziade.wordpress.com/2009/07/03/dropping-pep-386-versions-comparison/

So, again, I don't know anything about buildout, and it might be a

developments in distutils coming down the pike, and whatever becomes
the standard Python package management system will very likely be
based on those new developments.

I just hope it all happens sooner than later. :)
