Could you clarify why that's needed? Link to a relevant bug report or something similar is enough. We've got some weird problems installing Python packages (win32.exe) on Windows with Python 2.6 and would like to know are these problems related. One thing we noticed (I'm not sure has this been yet submitted to bugs.python.org yet) was that installing packages created with Python 2.5 to Python 2.6 failed unless Python was in %PATH% [1]. Even then output printed by postinstall scripts wasn't visible in the installer. Another pretty severe problem was that installers created with Python 2.6 didn't work at all with older versions [2].
