Wow, that would be fantastic.  I didn't think I was touching anything
twisted-related, and since I'd seen this problem before, I thought it
was the same thing.

I'll know better from now on never to ignore a twisted problem, even
if it's a bit of a Heisenbug.

In the meantime, I'm working up some utilities to ease the virtualenv
workflow, based on some of the scripts that are out there from Doug
Hellman and Chris Burns.  This will let us do tests in 'naked python'
virtualenvs more easily, so we can really have a test suite that at
least runs gracefully (skips but no errors) on nothing but
python(stdlib)+nose+ipython.

Stay tuned.
