Summary: Problem packaging wx application with py2exe.

Initial Comment:
I have created a minimal wx application, which runs fine. However, when I package it with py2exe and I try to run the .exe file, an error occurs, the program crashes (before even starting) and a pop-up box says to look at the log file for the error trace. It says that wx/_core_.pyd failed to be loaded (this file exists in my filesystem - I have checked). When I skip "zipfile = None" in the setup() function, another pop-up box also appears, and says that a DLL failed to be loaded.

Python 2.5
wxPython 2.8.0.1
py2exe 0.6.6

For reference, this may or may not be related to having gdiplus.dll and/or
the msvcrt71.dll (or something like that) in the same path as the
executable that runs your program.  Try to move those into the same path as
the executable you are trying to run and see if that helps.  If it doesn't,
feel free to post on the wxPython-users at lists.wxwidgets.org mailing list.
