In http://bugs.python.org/issue14302 Brian Curtin claims
"After talks at PyCon with several people, python.exe will live in 
C:\Python33\bin rather than C:\Python33 to come more in line with the 
Unix layout.

This will also simplify another issue with the Path option for the 3.3 
installer as well as packaging's target directory for top-level scripts 
(used to be Scripts/, will be bin/)."
