Changes:
...
distutils/command/bdist_wininst.py:
- the windows installer is again able to compile after installing
the files. Note: The default has changed, the packager has to
give --no-target-compile/--no-target-optimize to NOT compile
on the target system. (Another note: install_lib's --compile
--optimize options have the same semantics to switch off
the compilation. Shouldn't the names change?)
- All references to specific python versions are gone.
- A small bug:
raise DistutilsPlatformError ("...")
instead of
raise DistutilsPlatformError, ("...")
- When bdist_wininst creates an installer for one specific python
version, this is reflected in the name:
Distutils-0.9.2.win32-py15.exe instead of
Distutils-0.9.2.win32.exe
- bdist_wininst, when run as script, reads the wininst.exe file
and rewrites itself. Previously this was done by hand.
misc/install.c
- All the changes needed for compilation
- Deleted a lot of debug/dead code

Windows installer, reflecting changes that went into a replacement 2.0b1

.exe that will show up on PythonLabs.com later today:
Include the Lib\xml\ package (directory + subdirectories).
Include the Lib\lib-old\ directory.
Include the Lib\test\*.xml test cases (well, just one now).
Remove the redundant install of Lib\*.py (looks like a stray duplicate
line that's been there a long time). Because of this, the new
installer is a little smaller despite having more stuff in it.
