i've been trying to get this going with my own stuff.
i used the "Freeze.py" script to build my EXE. i made this change
to archive_rt.py. i'm no longer getting the problem with the 'time'
module, but having trouble using one of my extension modules.

"ImportError: no module named pygame.base"

i looked in the "Builder.log", and at the bottom, this module
is definitely getting put into the EXE...

this whole installer is still a 'black-art' to me, so it's tough
for me to figure out any problems.

in need of clues :]
