New submission from Marc Abramowitz <msabr...@gmail.com>:
I noticed that pip wasn't working properly on Python 3.3a - notably, it wasn't
able to load any of its own VCS modules -- it does this by using
pkgutil.walk_packages
I think the problem is that the behavior of pkgutil.walk_packages changed in
some incompatible way in 3.3 -- take a look at the following:
