OK, having now looked into the ZEO situation in 2.7 more closely, I've 
found all sorts of places that it's broken. Mostly this has to do with 
the installation method. I've checked in fixed mkzeoinstance and 
mkzeoinst.py to get most of the way there.

I've hit a nasty blocker - the zdrun daemon attempts to execute 
runzeo.py, but without setting the sys.path in some manner that allows 
runzeo.py to find ZConfig. That's a bugger to track down 'cos the error 
is eaten up during the brief time "off the air" between zdrun 
fork/exec'ing and runzeo setting up new logging. Gah.

Is this on anyone's plate?

I'm off to see Daredevil :)
