    As documented in this thread: stackoverflow.com/questions/1570542 my solution wasn't as clever as I thought; it lead to other errors. I'm just going to have to install vcredist. Arg Commented Oct 16, 2009 at 5:18

    I say that you are still clever. Maybe it doesn't work with an app that uses SQLite, but I tried the trick of adding the 3 dlls and the manifest file to the runtime directory. This allowed my fairly simple Python26/py2exe app to run correctly without errors and without having to install vc_redist on the machine (Win2003 Server), which I couldn't do anyhow on a client's machine.
