Duplicate path entries in sys.path in manage.py r1047

Duplicate path entries in sys.path in manage.py r1047

What steps will reproduce the problem?
* debug and view path and sys.path variables in manage.py or print the path 
and sys.path variables.
* check for contents of path and sys.path variables before and after Line 
6: if path: sys.path = list(path) + sys.path

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Some path entries, already present in sys.path are duplicated after path 
contents are added to sys.path

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Pinax r1047 + Django 1.0 + WinXP, 

Please provide any additional information below.
Have pasted path and sys.path contents from my winxp dev env at 
http://dpaste.com/hold/84415/ (if this dpaste link is no longer active, see 
the attached txt file. )

Is this reporting an actual bug or merely the fact there are duplicates in 
`sys.path`? The reason for this is a slight 
side affect of ensuring we take over site-packages. Ultimately we should fix 
this, but is a low priority item for us 
right now.

Not sure if duplicate path entries impact performance?
Priority-Low would be appropriate.

With the move away from svn:externals this issue is no longer an issue :)
