This problem has only ever been seen with Windows services, but it *has*
been seen with modules other than WMI (ie, 'zlib' came up just a couple of
weeks ago).
I think pywin32 itself should avoid allowing SYSTEM32 to be on your sys.path
in this environment, and that should solve 99% of the problems.
