As a follow-up, a clean install of Windows 7, Python 2.7.6 and pywin32 2.18 in
a Virtual Machine does not exhibit this behavior. The Python extension
actually works in Explorer.
So, it would seem that some other currently installed extension might be
colliding with this. However, I'd still like some pointers on how to debug
this Python-based extension if anybody has them, so I won't have to resort to
writing it in C++.
