Actually pretty sure it's actually more to do with those external modules
being compiled in background or something, since the copying of that file,
etc. works fine for my other app, and it's definitely there, and even if I
tell it not to bother copying the C runtime library folder, it still
generates that error, so really seems like something specific happening in
background, but am also discussing this with guys on python-win32 mailing
list, so let's see if one of them has any ideas.

Stay well
