It works fine for me. One way for it to fail is if you uncompilable modules in the target directory. Currently, it invokes [TARGETDIR]python.exe -Wi [TARGETDIR]Lib\compileall.py -f -x bad_coding|badsyntax|site-packages [TARGETDIR]Lib where TARGETDIR is, well, the target directory of the installation. You could try to run this after you installed Python without pyc compilation, to see whether it succeeds.
