I don't know what this ansi switch/parameter does, and won't have time 
to look it up for the moment (as 2.8.4 just got released I am trying to 
put final touches/tests for my software which will keep me busy for a 
few days.

Shouldn't be a problem, I just never use it as I just always work within 
Boa.

I just run your pe2_test.py (after having renamed it to setup.py) from 
within Boa which on my development machine (Vista) uses the wxPython 
ansi version.  Then I executed the generated .exe file on the Vista 
machine and did not see any problems, then I copied the GUITest.exe, 
MSVCR71.dll and w9xpopen.exe to the Win2K machine and executed the .exe 
and again all worked without problems.
