0.10 does not install as an egg ever. setuptools integration is new
in 0.11. You should be setting PYTHON_EGG_CACHE to /tmp unless you
have a very good reason not to (or the equivalent on windows).

That did the trick, thank you very much. It's still a little sluggish,
but not much slower than PHP. Logging in works, so I can create users to
edit tickets. That's the main thing. Software you can use *and* keep
your hair. Nice.

When I've implemented Python servers before, I've always just used
mod_proxy. Is it possible to write to the SVN repository running
Trac as a stand alone program? If I do that, will I have to run a
separate instance of tracd for each project?
You can certainly use tracd for multiple projects. I don't understand your question about Subversion though, Trac never writes to
subversion for any reason.

That was my misunderstanding about the scope of the project. If there
are no plug-ins to manipulate repositories already in the works then
I'll have to look for other ways to get the soup-to-nuts functionality
I want. I think that there are packages that can do commits in
SVN... and that one of them uses Trac on its development site. :-)

I'd certainly appreciate a pointer to whatever plug-in or external
programs do this well with Trac (or failing that, do it poorly but
demonstrate potential for improvement).

I've never heard of anything that replaces mod_dav_svn, which it sounds like you want. Trac is designed to work alongside a Subversion RA server, not replace it.
