Hi Christian,
I'm a little reluctant to apply this patch as it stands - we rely on
setuptools doing the right thing for *all* "library" modules - eg, if we
need win32/lib/*.py, we presumably would need all other .py files not
listed here - eg, the entire win32com package, etc.
However, if you can't narrow this down any further, please upload it to
sourceforge, and I'll see if I can reproduce it next time I make a build.
Cheers,
Mark

Hi Mark and friends,
for a customer, I had to build pywin32 with VS2010, and when it finally
worked after some changes from https://wiki.python.org/moin/VS2010,
I still could not run
import win32con
I tried to find out why, to no success. I examined some older
installation logs
on my machine, and the installation of win32/lib was in fact done
correctly.
With the recent setuptools (tested with 1.2.1 and 1.3.2), the 'py_modules'
entry of setup.py seems to be ignored.
After pulling hair until I became almost bald, I ended up with the
following
patch to pywin32 version 217 (218 does not work for me, missing files):
Here is the patch if it makes sense to submit it here:

This seems to be an incompatibility with recent setuptools. (tested
1.1.6 and 1.3.2)
Should be investigated further who has a bug here…
