Also, I've added support for eggs.  So if you have setuptools installed
on your system (python -c 'import setuptools' to see), it will install
eggs by default now.

However in this case you should
remove /usr/lib/python2.?/site-packages/kaa and reinstall all modules
(which will now install as eggs), because having parallel egg and
non-egg installs of kaa.base is a bit precarious.  (Currently it will
warn if this happens.)

Eggs solve a few problems, one of which is the ability to have multiple
versions installed, and also in updating or replacing an existing
version you don't have to worry about stale files left behind.  (This
has been a problem for us a few times in the past.)

All this completely moot if setuptools is not available on your system,
in which case the behaviour should be identical to before.

So please let me know if you see any problems with this or the lazy
import functionality.

Thanks,
Jason.
