I don't think TurboGears requires a specific version of setuptools (at
least, it shouldn't).

ez_setup.py, on the other hand, is designed for a specific version. If
you already have setuptools installed, you need not run ez_setup. You
can just run easy_install. (ez_setup is a bootstrap replacement for
easy_install when you need to get things installed but don't yet have
setuptools or, at least, the correct version of setuptools).
