[issue9761] stale .pyc files aren't cleaned out

"Setup.py install". We've also seen this happen when checking our python
files out of our version control system.  Also seen a .pyc get used when the
.py no longer exists, but I could see that being intentional behavior.

So are you installing new versions of a package you already have installed
using ``python setup.py install``? Exactly what command are you using to do
the install?
