This sounds more likely to be caused by not having the site.py changes I
mentioned above. IIRC buildout 1.5 uses "python -S" to avoid the
automatic import of site.py, so it would never see the Debian/Ubuntu
modifications in site.py. As long as buildout uses "-S", I think the
only fix for that would be for buildout's "detect system-wide eggs"
feature to add in explicit workaround/support for dist-packages. This is
what virtualenv does.

Just making sure: you're suggesting a debian-specific workaround in buildout?

Buildout maintainers: would adding such a workaround be OK with you?
