I'm not actually sure I even mean "zope3-dependencies":  I don't know
how maintained the thing known as the "Zope 3 Appserver" really is
today.  In particular, I would exclude any package in the zope.app.*
namespace which is not also used by either grok or Zope2.

So, my algorithm would be more like this:

 counts = {}
 for package_set in zope3, grok, zope2:
     for package in package_set:
         current = counts.setdefault(package, 0)
         counts[package] = current + 1
 ztk = [x[0] for x in counts if x[1] > 1]

The ZTK is supposed to be a *base* for the other platforms to use, and
to represent the portions of the code which are not specific to any
single platform.
