AFAIK pythonw doesn't work in virtualenvs and within a virtualenv the python command is the real embedded interpreter, not the pythonw wrapper you get otherwise. This is something that needs to be fixed by someone. I'm more likely to work on a simular tool that supports both 2.x and 3.x and doesn't install crap I didn't ask for and isn't mentioned in the documentation.
