[python-win32] pywin32 installer problems with Python 2.6

I am using Visual C++ 9.0 to build pywin32, and Dependency Walker  
shows that the pyhon.exe from the 2.6 snapshot is linked against the  
Visual C++ 9.0 runtime.

The installer that you provided crashes for me in the same way.  
Perhaps it's a bug in Python or something wrong with my machine? Other  
installers that I have made today for Python 2.6 have succeeded. Very  
curious.
