Yes, Sam Rushing's "calldll" is oriented to exactly that -- let
you call any DLL routine (including API's) on Win32.  You will
find versions for Python 1.5.2 and 2.0 listed among the very
interesting stuff at http://www.nightmare.com/software.html
(don't know how hard it would be to adapt the 2.0 version to
2.1 -- presumably not terrible).
