Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com> added the comment:

Indeed, I confirmed that using the simple example from the distutils manual 
(http://docs.python.org/distutils/introduction.html#a-simple-example) on a 
clean install of Python 2.6.2, bdist_msi exhibits the behavior previously 
described.

I suspect that the TargetPlatform property needs to be set (based on what I 
read here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cd7a85k9(VS.80).aspx ).
