I realized another usecase, which may or may not be covered already,
should I add it to the page?


== Optional extensions ==

Some modules, such as zope.interface, have C-extensions which are only
performance enhancing and have pure-python fallbacks. It should be
easy to write an a command that if it fails doesn't stop the rest of
the build, and also includes the right files if it succeeds, but
doesn't fail when these files can't be built.
