[python-win32] Py_RunSimpleString() - read the buffer from file.

  // allocate memory to contain the whole file.
 buffer = (char*) malloc (lSize);

  // copy the file into the buffer.
 fread (buffer,1,lSize,pFile);

Looking at this, it doesn't look like you null-terminated
the string. Could that be all your problem is? (Don't forget
to add 1 to the length of the buffer you malloc as well!)
