[issue6792] Distutils-based installer does not detect 64bit versions of Python

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

One issue to consider is pre/post-install actions. bdist_wininst loads pythonxy.dll from the target system, which would fail if it is a 32-bit installer process that tries to load a 64-bit python DLL.
