Thank Luke and Ivan,
Yes, pyinstaller is a good alternative but it didn't work for me either,
resulting in a near-identical dll-load error to the one from py2exe. And
it wasn't the gdal???.dll that was the problem; that one was properly
included both by py2exe and pyinstaller.
The solution was instead to manually include the msvcp100.dll and
msvcr100.dll that are part of the gdal-111-1600-core.msi and package
them into the folder in which the compiled exe file is installed. Now it
works!
Strangely I had tried before to put two dlls with this name into a
folder that is already in the PATH, and I know that this didn't resolve
the issue then. I wonder now whether the two files that are part of the
gdal core installation are slightly different from other files with that
same name that I found on my machine.
Anyway, it works now. Many thanks again for your comments.

Can you post your setup.py? Hard to tell what's going on without it.
Also, I have had good results with pyinstaller, it picks up gdal
dependencies automatically and is as simple as running python pyinstaller.py
somescript.py (or python pyinstaller.py --onefile somescript.py if you want
a single output file instead of a folder).
