I hadn't, at least not for pyskel rather than pyskel.py.  The former
is there.

I hadn't appreciated that this was instance-specific, and also was
misled by whatever docs referred to it as pyskel.py.

So, to the extent this is a problem, it seems to be a documentation
issue.  Perhaps a sentence in README.Debian would be good:

"Some documents refer to scripts pyskel.py and test.py.  Those scripts
are specific to particular instances, and can be found in
/var/lib/zope3/instance/myinstance/bin/.  The scripts do *not* have
.py extensions."

Thanks for the tip.
