Summary: Need to rename zdaemon.py

Initial Comment:
Alas, it's not a good idea to have a script called
zdaemon.py when there's also a package named zdaemon.
When you try to run the *installed* runzeo.py, it fails
with a mysterious error:

ImportError: No module named zdoptions

This is because runzeo.py and zdaemon.py are both
installed in /usr/local/bin, and when
/usr/local/bin/runzeo.py is run, /usr/local/bin is on
sys.path. So the "import zdaemon.zdoptions" finds the
zdaemon.py module, which doesn't have a zdoptions
submodule.

The only solution I see is to rename zdaemon.py to
something else.
