[python-win32] 'No such interface supported' error after makepy

[Simon Judge]

Hmm, 

Bizzare - I've replicated what I did exactly on a different box and
can't recreate it!  It must be box specific - maybe a problem with
office???  It is behaving slightly weirdly at the moment...

Ohh well, unless anyone has any other ideas, i'll just develop on
another box...  I suppose I could try reinstalling the lot (python, wx
&win32all).

Thanks.

Simon
