bdist_egg trips up over non-extension extensions

In particular, numpy can't build into an egg currently because numpy/__config__.py is created using Configuration.add_extension() and a generator function. In order to make extension modules usable from zipped eggs, setuptools generates a pure Python stub loader that will extract the extension module to a .hidden directory and load it from there. In this case, since the Extension isn't actually an extension, the stub loader is broken, because it expects a numpy/__config__.so. Can we find another way to generate Python code instead of abusing Extension this way? -- Robert Kern robert.kern@gmail.com "In the fields of hell where the grass grows high Are the graves of dreams allowed to die." -- Richard Harter
