This looks for 'login.xrc' in the current dir...

... and here you seem to want to be able to start the script from any location
so that in the end 'login.xrc' is not in the current dir.

I use something like the following to find the location of the xrc file:

xrcfile = os.path.splitext(os.path.abspath(__file__))[0]+'.xrc'
