Overhauled Windows script wrapping to support ``bdist_wininst`` better.
Scripts installed with ``bdist_wininst`` will always use ``#!python.exe`` or ``#!pythonw.exe`` as the executable name (even when built on non-Windows platforms!), and the wrappers will look for the executable in the script's parent directory (which should find the right version of Python).

``bdist_wininst`` under Python 2.3 and 2.4.
