My question here is:
Instead of "re-declaring" the global variables, wouldn't it make more sense to ditch the @_call_aside and just run the majority of the body of _initialize* functions directly on the global scope?
@jaraco, do you know if _call_aside()/_initialize_master_working_set()/_initialize() are used in pkg_resources just for the sake of organising the code, or is this very small delay on the execution a trick that solves a specific problem?
(I do like the way the code is organised right now, but if changes are needed for type-checking, I would prefer not having double book keeping. Of course we can decide that the type-checking here is not worth the trouble).

FWIW, you already have to for other checkers (just as a note, most of these variables were moved from the top of the file, so this PR doesn't introduce double book-keeping).
That being said, I agree it'd be nicer if we didn't have to, but I wouldn't want to revamp pkg_resources too much outside of making it a fully typed package to take it out of typeshed. Unless it's a simple change.
