    Fix develop install for setuptools >= 19.4 · 0975236c

    Starting from setuptools 19.4, more concrete from the following commit:
    
        https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/commit/ebc54982
    
    setuptools sorts namespaced packages .__path__ to be in sync with sys.path .
    That however breaks for wendelin.core used from in-tree or installed in
    development mode, because we are doing tricks in top-level import redirector
    (see e870781d "Top-level in-tree import redirector"):
    
        (z+numpy.v2)kirr@teco:~/tmp/trashme/wendelin.core$ python -c 'import wendelin'
        Traceback (most recent call last):
          File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
          File "wendelin.py", line 39, in <module>

            orig_path.sort(key=position_in_sys_path)
          File "/home/kirr/src/wendelin/venv/z+numpy.v2/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2045, in position_in_sys_path
            return sys_path.index(_normalize_cached(os.sep.join(parts)))
        ValueError: '/home/kirr/tmp/trashme' is not in list
    
    Here wendelin.py added /home/kirr/tmp/trashme/wendelin.core to .__path__ and
    setuptools' _handle_ns() wants to order that dir's parent in correspondence
    with sys.path, but parent path is not there - oops.
    
    We can workaround the problem, by first not initializing .__path__ and letting
    
        __import__('pkg_resources').declare_namespace(__name__)
    
    fully handle and initialize it, and only after it is done we make the
    correction for wendelin modules located not under .../wendelin.core/wendelin/
    but under .../wendelin.core/ .
    
    Importing was tested to work with the fix with both setuptools 20.6.7 and older
    setuptools 17.1.1, i.e. here we should not be breaking backward compatibility.
