That's perfectly fine. If people make feature requests, it's
often uncertain whether they lack time or knowledge, or are
merely to shy/uncertain to propose a patch. So somebody else
needs to volunteer to work on this.

I'd like to, but I really have no clue on bdist_wininst since I develop on 
Linux 
and only occasionally I need to package something so that it can be installed 
in 
Win.
In my linux machine which is ubuntu based bdist_ininst does not even work since 
some piece of it is apparently not installed in debian :-(

[Sergio Callegari]

New submission from Sergio Callegari:

When creating an installer with bdist_wininst, any unicode characters in the 
description and long_description fields get mangled when running the installer.
