[python-win32] ERROR installing pywin32 for python 2.2

[Mark Hammond]

This is a known problem in build 203 with Windows NT.  I believe 202 did not
have that problem (but did have some others instead!)

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1067148&group_id=78
018&atid=551954

It should be fixed in the next build.

Regards,

Mark
