A closed issue in Python tracker http://bugs.python.org/issue5019
refers to similar problem reported by wxPython developers. AFAIK, the
solution used by the wxPython project can not be used with PyGUI as it
requires PyGUI to be compiled & loaded as a separate dll. I am not
sure if we should reopen this issue or create a new issue.

As a workaround to enable theme on Vista you need to:
    1. Download http://bugs.python.org/file12995/python.exe.manifest
and copy it to Python installation directory
    2. Execute following commands in python installation directory:
           mt.exe -manifest python.exe.manifest -
outresource:python.exe;#1
           mt.exe -manifest python.exe.manifest -
outresource:pythonw.exe;#1
    Note: mt.exe is installed with Windows SDK.

P.S. I also found out that I can not run any tests if I use
pythonw.exe on Vista. I will check the same on XP and report back.
