The default test runner, as invoked by 'setup.py test', fails to execute tests in tests/*.py (test_pkg_resources and test_ez_setup). I believe this is because the "test_suite" is defined as "setuptools.tests".

The tests can be run manually using another test runner, but it'd be preferable if the tests could be run using 'setup.py tests'. I'm open to suggestions on how to make this happen.
