[python-win32] wmi.py + pythonservice.exe

[ccollier at viawest.net]

Thank you all for the quick input and insights.  Tim, I'll give your 
suggestions a shot for routing around the com imports issue when I have a 
chance.

In the mean time, I found an interesting work around.  If I rename wmi.py 
to anything else and then reference it accordingly, the problem 
dissapears.  (ex. pywmi.py, import pywmi)  Due to deadlines, I'll probably 
have to come back and learn why this is the case later, but I'm sure it 
will provide some good insight and a learning experience regarding python 
internal workings.
