That error, along with other Windows-specific problems with setup.py have been fixed in the current code. Plus you get over a years worth of bug fixes and significant improvements (unicode, autoescape, queryset improvements). Unless you have pre-existing code that you don't want to adjust for backwards-incompatible changes since 0.96, I see no reason to stick with an 0.96.x release. If you really need to use an 0.96 release, pull just the current setup.py from SVN. You can download it from here: http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/setup.py (there are download links at the bottom of the page) and use it instead of the one that comes with 0.96.
