Actually, we are trying to get something which works identically
on Windows and Unix if possible.

I would guess the problem on Windows is that the shared libs
have been compiled to need Python, and so the only way they
can get Python is in a DLL.  If the main.exe and a shared lib
both need Python (the usual case) then Python MUST be in a
shared lib too.  Making an exe will not work.  On Windows, the
solution is to put the frozen Python libs into python15.dll.
Then everything will work.
