[Distutils] eggs: Python version independence

[Ian Bicking]

Most (90%+) of the libraries I work with don't depend on a Python 
version.  But unfortunately when using easy_install/eggs they always 
have an explicit version, and multiple installations are necessary 
otherwise.

Generally speaking, all pure-Python packages are version independent. 
At least on the source level.  I suppose .pyc files aren't always 
(though they haven't changed for a long time, have they?) -- would it be 
reasonable to have version-independent packages?
