[Distutils] setuptools: name quoting

I'm a bit confused about name quoting. I have a package with a name
"Todo_SQLObject_ZPT", and egg_info writes to
"Todo-SQLObject-ZPT.egg-info". Why? I thought -'s were bad, but _'s
were okay...?
I'm also getting a traceback when I try to do "python setup develop",
following. The application that is causing this problem is at
http://svn.pythonpaste.org/Paste/apps/Todo_SQLObject_ZPT/trunk (it's
probably broken in other ways, I'm still in the process of converting
it). I'm using the latest CVS version of setuptools.
Todo_SQLObject_ZPT$ python setup.py egg_info develop
running egg_info
writing ./Todo-SQLObject-ZPT.egg-info/PKG-INFO
writing top-level names to ./Todo-SQLObject-ZPT.egg-info/top_level.txt
running develop
