I used this buildout to get this script available in isolation:

[buildout]
parts =
   fixer
versions = versions

[versions]
ZODB3 = 3.8.3b1

[fixer]
recipe = zc.recipe.egg
eggs = ZODB3

...it doesn't need an instance home or any such, as it just copies a 
source .fs file (which can be in use) to a new .fs fiel but minus the 
versions.

cheers,

Chris

PS: Andreas, I could have taken your usual approach and just shouted at 
you to use Google since Jim already helped me through this about a month 
ago ;-)
