Ok, out of nowhere easy_install is just giving me "OverflowError: signed
integer is greater than maximum" errors, even if run without arguments.
It should just display command line usage info but I get this instead:
Traceback (most recent call last):

OverflowError: signed integer is greater than maximum
Tracing the error, it comes up with importing pkg_resource:
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
Does anyone have any idea what is going on? This used to work before.
