Looking at commands/develop.py I notice that it's the only command which sets 'command_consumes_arguments = False', and it also doesn't override the negative_opt dict. I tried setting 'negative_opt = {}' and it started working again.
Yeah, it looks like I broke "develop" when I added the '--always-unzip' option to the "easy_install" command (which "develop" subclasses). That's the sucky thing about not having automated tests. Thanks for the bug report, and your fix is indeed the correct one. It never occurred to me that adding an option to the base class would affect the subclass that way. I'm pushing out 0.5a11 now to fix this. Sorry about that.
