Summary: Error with 2.5a1 MSI installer

Initial Comment:
Installing 2.5a1 on Windows XP Pro SP2. I changed the
install directory to D:\Apps\Python25, and selected
"compile all modules" from the advanced options screen.
Everything else is as standard.

The install stopped with a message "There is a problem
with ths Windows Installer package. A program run as
part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact
your support personnel or package vendor." This was
right after the compile of all modules.

There's plenty of free disk space on the machine.

Rerunning without the "compile all modules" selection
worked fine.
