Uploaded:  "WinBuilders_pywin32.patch"
 - http://collector.zope.org/Zope/1528/WinBuilders_pywin32.patch/view
This patch allows WinBuilders to use pywin32-203.  This build has some nice features, including that services again work on Windows NT, so will fix #1423.  It will also allow the functionality in #1527 to be used.  I will be adding another patch later for services that will depend on this.

The patch requires a cygwin unzip.  It installs a complete pywin32 build maintaining the directory structure.

Note that recent builds of Inno fail with the .iss install script - InputDir() requires 3 params.  The patch also fixes this, but I'm not sure if it breaks old Inno versions.
