Summary: bdist_wininst preinstall script support is broken in 2.5a1

Initial Comment:
The attached zip file contains a trivial module. Run
"run_setup.bat" to create a bdist_wininst installer
(you'll need to edit it to make the preinstall script
path match where you unzipped the file).

The resulting installer fails with an error "Running the
pre-installation script failed".
