Hello everyone,

It looks like you have been working on putting the
Python library into the binary.  I looked in
Tools/freeze at freeze.py.  Please check my understanding
of the following:

1) Use of freeze.py creates a frozen module with the
Python library in it.

2) There is always a __main__.py program incorporated.

3) No further use of frozen modules is permitted since
there is only one frozen module allowed.

Number (2) and (3) are a problem for me, but maybe I
am wrong about how this all works.
