Earlier patch to always install python's eggs as unpacked files

There was a patch in this post from last year 
(http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-python/2011-August/003701.html) to 
make python packages unpack eggs to avoid problems with shared egg caches and 
to avoid requiring Internet access during pkg_add.  Andrey mentioned doing an 
exp run with his patch.  I don't see the patch committed to bsd.python.mk or 
any further replies to the thread.  We are running into some of these issues 
using our own packages at my work.  Were there any problems with this patch or 
during it's exp run?
