[python-win32] Issues with tkinter, COM servers and Python 3.x

Yes, I did. In normal situations the value is a string, but when I call from a COM is bytes.

That's very bizarre.  Did you print out the value of baseName to see
what it was?  I'm wondering if something in the Python COM machinery is
faking os.path.basename and didn't get the memo about strings in Python 3.
