As a work-around after boot-straping:
1) in the setup.py comment out the line that contains egenix-mx-base
2) bin\buildout.exe
3) download the installer or zipped pre-built distribution from
egenix.com for the mxbase distribution (use the download link via the
product mxDateTime)
4) install it in the virtual environment's python
5) and start up the server

If you use the MSI installer in steps 4) and 5), be sure to uninstall
mxBase before you eventually delete the virtual environment. I think
the registry gets polluted otherwise and a next installation would be
problematic.

HTH,
