Bug Description

As discovered in Launchpad's rollout, the _pythonpath.py script (generated from buildout-templates/_pythonpath.py.in and used by many scripts to update the sys.path) is too fragile. It wants to try to warn when it encounters a situation that might cause some scary and insane errors, but it does that with a whitelist that appears to not be stable across development and production.
