I am trying to locate a windows binary of a recent python (2.4
preferred, but not essential) with support for Unicode characters

binaries and those from Activestate, both give me a traceback on
unichr(0x10000) and tell me its a "narrow" build.
Wide unicode is currently not supported on Windows. A number of
internal APIs (in particular for the registry, and for the "mbcs"
codec) assume that sizeof(Py_UNICODE) is 2. Contributions are
welcome.
Even with that fixed, Pythonwin would still need a major rework
to support wide Unicode.
