[python-win32] compile context_menu.py into context_menu.exe doesn't work

[Mark Hammond]

Context menus are implemented in DLLs, so you need to get py2exe to 
create a COM DLL for you then run "regsvr32.exe your.dll" to register 
the extension - see the py2exe docs for more details.

Cheers,

Mark
