I agree with Andrew's diagnosis, it's version-skew problem with
asyncore.  ZEO expects to find a recent version of asyncore, but Zope
2.3.2 ships with Python 1.5.2 and its old version of asyncore.

It's strange, though, that you see that particular error.  When I run
ZEO 1.0b3 w/ Zope 2.3.2 on Win2k, I get an error that says it's unable
to find an up-to-date copy of cPickle.

So I can't reproduce your exact problem, but I also can't get ZEO to
run on Win2k.

In your case, I don't understand why it's finding asyncore.py from
Zope\bin\lib.  I would expect it to use the one found in
ZServer\medusa\asyncore.
