viewlets.xml hell

Hey folks, quick question. I'm consistently unable to have changes to
viewlets.xml 'take hold' in my theme without the drastic step of nuking my
development site, creating a new one, and reinstalling the theme product.
These are themes created with paster (more than one) and my typical futile
attempt looks something like:
- edit viewlets.xml (say, hide siteactions)
- change the version number of the product
- restart zope
- reinstall the product from plone_control_panel
- tada! nothing. zilch. nada.
Reimporting the theme profile via GS hasn't worked either, IIRC.
Without doing anything else (eg no other changes to the product), deleting
the existing site, creating a new one, and installing the theme product
causes the "new" viewlets changes to take effect.
This is suboptimal, to say the least, and I'm wondering what I might be
doing wrong here as others I've spoken to (veda, duffyd) don't seem to have
the same problem. I have been part of conversations on #plone where others
do, however.
Thanks,
Trey
