Thanks for picking this up!

I do, however, strongly object to pinning versions of dependencies in 
setup.py like this. What's the point of eggifying Zope 2 in the first 
place then if not for the ability to upgrade individual libraries to 
newer versions with bugfixes or features?

Instead of pinning versions in setup.py, we should rather include a list 
of known-good versions, or even better, add the Zope 2 eggs to the Zope 
KGS. That way, by default, you'd get the known good set but you could 
deviate from it as necessary. More importantly, by having one good set 
(instead of a setup.py here, a versions.cfg there and another list 
somewhere else), the KGS becomes much easier to maintain.
