To be unable to use new packages from an updated Zope Toolkit.

It may be that some (many?) packages won't work with Zope 2.10, but if 
we get the kind of dependency isolation we're talking about, I'd wager 
that quite a few packages would work if pulled in independently.

It's also generally silly to break compatibility with a platform if 
there's not a compelling reason to do so. I suspect there may be 
compelling reasons, but the TAR file issue isn't one of them.
