1427	upgrade the setuptools to 0.6a10	Ian@…	Adrian Holovaty	"Hi.
While trying out the latest SVN trunk with python 2.3 I got the following

{{{
desrv01:~/django_src iholsman$ python setup.py build
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ""setup.py"", line 2, in ?
    ez_setup.use_setuptools()
  File ""/nethome/iholsman/django_src/ez_setup.py"", line 84, in use_setuptools
    import setuptools; setuptools.bootstrap_install_from = egg
OverflowError: signed integer is greater than maximum
}}}
when I switched ez_setup.py to use 0.6a10 it no longer occurred.
