This is one case where IMO genini is better than upset: genini-generated 
setup.ini's don't list source-only packages in setup's package selector, 
while still being available through the "Src" option of any of its 
subpackages.  Could upset be changed to match, which would avoid this 
problem for *all* source-only packages?
