[Zope-dev] Bootstrapping ZCA for Python 3.

[Lennart Regebro]

FYI: I solved it. As usual the solution was dead simple once it struck me.

I made a custom test command for setuptools, that simply create a
temporary script modeled after the bin/test script that buildout would
create, and call that. Problem solved!
