I suggest you examine the attributes of win32com.client.constants. Perhaps 
there is a case sensitivity issue. makepy can cause attributes that were 
previously case insensitive to become case sensitive.

I also recall somewhere a discussion about win32com.client.constants not 
being populated immediately. Consider waiting a moment after dispaching.
