Python needs a run-time egg cache for some eggified products. It will normally use a .python-eggs subdirectory of $HOME, but Zope is often used in a context in which the effective user has no home directory.

Proposal: Add to the zope skeleton an egg-cache directory, possibly as a subdirectory of var; add code to zopectl and runzope to use the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE environment variable to point to the cache directory.
