>From the Python docs (chapter 'writing the setup script):

"""
data_files specifies a sequence of (directory, files) pairs in the following way:

setup(...,
      data_files=[('bitmaps', ['bm/b1.gif', 'bm/b2.gif']),
                  ('config', ['cfg/data.cfg']),
                  ('/etc/init.d', ['init-script'])]
     )
"""

So, it looks like you should use

> setup(windows=['dpconf.py'],
>      data_files=[("", ["proj_db","gsd_db","dachs2.xbm"])]
                   ^                                     ^
>      )
