[python-win32] win32serviceutil: ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found

[Mark Hammond]

I see on python-list that this was solved by running the postInstall 
script manually.  However, I'm surprised that is necessary - build 219 
has a work-around for Python 3.4 not running the post-install script, so 
that should work.

I'll try and look into how this might have happened, but if you would 
like to help in the meantime, could you please re-run the pywin32 
installer and (a) verify it prompted you to elevate, and (b) at the very 
end of the install process, verify that the installer shows you the 
output of the post-install script rather than an empty box?

Thanks,

Mark
