Maybe also let's look on setuptools solution.It can make windows 
executable for 'entry point scripts'.

Also there are family scripts for single entry point:
* easy_install.exe
* easy_install-2.5.exe
* easy_install-2.5-script.py
* easy_install-script.py

I like it. Exe files executes specific python version. If you are 
installed library in python 2.6 - python 2.6 interpreter will be used, 
not looking in 'default' interpreter etc.

I use setuptools and for me it gives good 'executive python scripts'.  

BTW, double click executes 'default' interpreter, not last installed.
