py2exe icon resource on win98

[Haim Ashkenazi]

Hi

I'm trying to build a binary with py2exe. I've used the method suggested in
the py2exe wiki about adding icon resources to apps. it build ok on win2k,
but when I try to build the same on win98 I get this error:

copying C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages\py2exe\run.exe -> C:\My
Documents\NS_Backup\dist\NS_Backup.exe
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Setup.py", line 13, in ?

    add_icon(unicode(exe_path), unicode(ico_filename), ico_id)
RuntimeError: MapExistingFile: The handle is invalid

----------------------------------
I've attached my "setup.py".
