This is intensional, py2exe stores some modules in the zip files and want
Python to find them first.

I usually have something like the following in my code.

    from os.path import isfile, dirname
    from sys import path

    APPDIR = path[0] # Application directory
    if isfile(APPDIR): # py2exe
        APPDIR = dirname(APPDIR)

HTH.
