What do you mean by "crashes"? Can you build it in debug mode (--debug) and
show me the output at execution time?

Yes, in fact, I'm not having time for much PyInstaller development at the
moment, so it could be well worth to release it.

Yes, it's work-in-progress. The bootloader in the trunk does not have an
external dependency anymore because the msvcrt is linked to the bootloader,
but having a totally msvcrt-agnostic bootloader would still be valuable (eg.
it'd be much smaller).

No, I use scons (http://www.scons.org) to automate the build. It builds all
the different bootloader flavours with all the different compilers
automatically.
