I'm sure there's a way to do it.  It will just take some digging.   
Maybe there's a way to tell setuptools not to do it or maybe there's  
enough meta data laying around for buildout to undo it.  For example,  
the EGG-INFO/SOURCES.txt has a list of the original files in the  
distribution, so it should be easy enough to figure out where these  
extra bogus files are.
