It is getting offtopic, but I don't care too much about that. I requested that zlib be changed to a builtin module too allow easier bootstrapping of py2exe'd apps which have a compressed library archive. The nearly only reason for me to implement the single-file option for py2exe was that the implementation simulates a static linked Python-dll, which allows for several totally-isolated interpreters in the same process.
