ZODB ships with a .py file containing a syntax error 
(that's intentional, it's part of a test of the zope.testing 
component).  So, whenever somone does

setup.py install

they see a complaint about this file, like

byte-compiling /home/tim/glom/lib/python2.4/site-
packages/zope/testing/testrunner-
ex/sample2/sampletests_i.py to sampletests_i.pyc
  File "/home/tim/glom/lib/python2.4/site-
packages/zope/testing/testrunner-
ex/sample2/sampletests_i.py", line 15
    importx unittest
                   ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


That's fine.  The problem is that doing

setup.py install --no-compile

makes no difference -- it still tries to compile everything 
to .pyc.  True at least in Python 2.3.5 and 2.4.1.

Closing this as invalid -- it appears to be unique to setup.py 
thingies created by Zope's zpkgtools.
