[Zope] Can't install LoginManager

[Pete Nesbitt]

The new version of LoginManager (LoginManager-0-8-8b1) says it now includes 
ZPatterns and Plugins. I am "assuming" they unpack properly and require no 
further care. 

from CHANGES.txt:
"NOTE*: This release requires ZPatterns 0.4.3b1, WHICH IS NOW INCLUDED"

It does create and populate the directory.

here is what is in it....

bash-2.04$ pwd
