I am trying to build PyGTK 2.24 from source on Windows 7 (64-bit) to apply
the workaround for this bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660659

I have all the dependancies installed, but when I run the final build
command on MSYS, it exits with the last few lines:

running build_scripts
creating build\scripts-2.7
copying pygtk_postinstall.py -> build\scripts-2.7
running bdist_wininst
installing to build\bdist.win32\wininst
running install_lib
creating build\bdist.win32
creating build\bdist.win32\wininst
creating build\bdist.win32\wininst\PLATLIB
creating build\bdist.win32\wininst\PLATLIB\gtk-2.0
creating build\bdist.win32\wininst\PLATLIB\gtk-2.0\tests
creating build\bdist.win32\wininst\PLATLIB\gtk-2.0\tests\pygtk
error: can't copy 'tests\runtests-windows.py': doesn't exist or not a
regular file

I'm not sure what file tests\runtests-windows.py it's talking about or why
I don't have it. A quick Windows explorer search reveals it isn't anywhere
in the unpacked pygtk-2.24 folder. What should I do?
