I haven't had a chance to look at buildout and not sure what recipes need to be tried, but just testing installing the projects on PyPI using pythonv, pysetup3 and this Distribute version has been instructive. I was getting some errors with BitBucket's CDN serving up old versions of files, so I tweaked the version numbers on the Disrribute download archive (and fixed one or two bugs) and re-tested. Out of 398 packages on PyPI which have a Python 3 trove classifier, apparently 310 were installed without errors. The other 88 had errors, some of which are project related (e.g. 14 SyntaxErrors) or have specific version requirements (8 insist on Python 3.1, for example), and others of which are due to missing dependencies or missing README files (7 instances). I'm still looking, but I still haven't found any Distribute-related errors. Full results on the 88 failures are at https://gist.github.com/1037662 - IMO 310 out of 398 is not too shabby for this stage in the proceedings (around 78%).
