Okay, here's a sample program that fails:

#------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/python

from Tkinter import *
import tkSimpleDialog

class MyDialog(tkSimpleDialog.Dialog):
    def body(self, master):
        Label(master, text="Label").grid()

    def apply(self):
        print "OK"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    root = Tk()
    md = MyDialog(root)
    mainloop()

#--------------------------------------------

And here's the setup file I'm using with py2exe:

#--------------------------------------------
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe

opts = {
    "py2exe": {
        "includes":"tkSimpleDialog"
        }
    }

setup(windows=['hellogui.py'], options=opts)

#--------------------------------------------

Can't make it any simpler than that... I'm so confused!
