py2exe and multiple PyOpenGL __init___.pyd files

[Mike C. Fletcher]

Not a good one at the moment.  You can see the work-around here:

    http://pyopengl.sourceforge.net/documentation/py2exe.html

You see a similar problem with PIL or any system that uses import trickery.

IMO what we need to look at doing is providing a mechanism for declaring 
redistributable sub-assemblies for packages. When a tool like py2exe 
finds a dependency it finds the associated assembly definition and says 
"oh, I'll include that assembly".  The definition can define how to 
include the assembly (e.g. copy a .zip, add extra files to the 
distribution, copy-and-rename, etceteras).  I'd like to work on that 
eventually.

HTH,
