I just tried this on something which we currently use py2exe+nsis to package and 
it certainly seems to produce a small exe, but when run I see a cryptic message 
on two message boxes

! msvcr71.dll

! could not be extracted

the program then exits.



When run with -X I saw output from the upx process

     348160 ->    165888   47.65%    win32/pe     MSVCR71.dll

Packed 1 file.

So I'm just guessing there might be a case sensitivity issue in the unpacking 
somewhere.
