I see in the archives that this has been reported before, and I can
verify that the attached patch does fix the problem for me. Basically
what is happening is that the launcher is trying to execute python with
the "#!" still in the name. I verified this by rebuilding gui.exe
without -mwindows arg so it would still be a console app so I would see
the failure message. It printed this:
"Could not exec #!c:\TOOLS\python25\pythonw.exe"
