The released version of py2exe isn't able to handle PyXML correctly.
Although the current CVS version can do it. If you can build it
yourself, you should try it.

I'm hesitating to make a new release at the moment because I hope to
solve the Python 2.3 problems, and also I have got a patch from Mark
Hammond for inproc com servers, which I would like to integrate.
