Would be nice if the binary PyGTK packages for windows included
msvcr71.dll if they depend on it. Many apps include this DLL.

John until that happens could you either: 1) have your custom installer
stick msvcr71.dll in system32 if it doesn't exist. Or 2) add the python
directory to the system path before installing PyGTK?
