This is really strange. I thought that bootstrap.py would install the version 
of setuptools that is needed, but other people know more about setuptools and 
buildout to give better advice. Anyone?

You will not need anything. Buildout will pull down all the eggs you need for 
you and install it in a local eggs directory, not effecting your global 
Python install at all! The z3c.form* packages do work with Zope 3.3.0 or Zope 
3.4.0b1. I just checked in and released a compatibility module for z3c.form.

That would be one way to go. Of course you also need to isntall the ZCML 
slugs. However, the 5 steps to run the demo will do everything for you to get 
the demo to run.
