In setuptools < 8.3 pkg_resources.py was a module, so
import pkg_resources
print(pkg_resources.__file__)
would print something like
/home/mg/src/buildout/eggs/setuptools-8.0.4-py2.7.egg/pkg_resources.py
Starting from setuptools 8.3 pkg_resources became a package, so the
above code prints
/home/mg/src/buildout/eggs/setuptools-11.3.1-py2.7.egg/pkg_resources/__init__.py
which means a single os.path.dirname() is no longer sufficient to find
the location of the .egg file/directory.
I'm pretty sure 'setuptools' itself was always a package, so use two
os.path.dirname()s on setuptools.__file__ to find the .egg location more
reliably with both old and new setuptools versions.
Fixes #227
