Yet somehow we're getting both in a z3c.contents buildout.  Note that
z3c.contents doesn't directly require either one.

It looks like we're getting persistent via BTrees 4.0.5, and we're
getting BTrees via zope.annotation 4.2.0, and we're getting
zope.annotation via zope.copypastemove 3.8.0, which is a direct
requirement of z3c.contents.

Are BTrees bundled with ZODB3 as well?  (Yes.)

Can setuptools dependencies express complicated Debian-package-like
concepts like "ZODB3 provides BTrees, persistent" and "ZODB3 conflicts
with BTrees, persistent"?

Are there other ways of avoiding a flag day?  I don't think we can
reasonably require that no final-version PyPI package may depend on
BTrees or persistent until ZODB 4.0.0 final is finally out.
