Since leaving dependencies un-nailed means that the package is
essentially unmaintainable, I've no plan to remove the nails.

The nails can certainly be changed if appropriate.

The ZODB nail I consider unfortunate, but being able to test changes
to this package will become important when it comes time to change
anything, or we can't tell that we haven't broken anything.
