Necessary because execfile() has disappeared in py3k.  None of this works with
bdist_mpkg at the moment, but that's a separate problem.

 A setup.py script to use setuptools, which gives egg goodness, etc.

+This is used to build installers for OS X through bdist_mpkg.

+Notes
+-----
+Using ``python setupegg.py install`` directly results in file permissions being
+set wrong, with nose refusing to run any tests. To run the tests anyway, use::
