I have turned on logger in
`Python27/Lib/site-packages/py2exe/boot_com_servers.py` and here is the
traceback which I am getting in `comerror.txt` on `regsvr32
test_icon_overlay.dll`

PATH is ['C:\\root\\avalon\\module\\sync\\python\\src\\dist\\library.zip']
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "boot_com_servers.py", line 37, in <module>
pywintypes.error: (126, 'GetModuleFileName', 'The specified module could not
be found.')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'DllRegisterServer' is not defined


Looks like there might be a problem with
`win32api.GetModuleFileName(sys.frozendllhandle)` or with the dll build on
64-bit Windows 7 .

Also, I saw that installation of 'pywin32-214.win-amd64-py2.7' on 64-bit
Windows 7 finish with the error message:

close failed in file object destructor:
sys.excepthook is missing
lost sys.stderr

Thanks,
Vijayendra.
