Well, including zc.buildout as a test dependency of distribute is a bit 
big, I guess.

The thing I'd try: add a test that does the thing zc.buildout does 
(str(exception)) and demonstrate that that's the right answer. Add a 
comment on why this needs testing.

The thing that gave me an error (cmmi through staticlxml) is exactly one 
of those buildout tasks that takes 15 minutes to compile... ;-)
