I would like to get the source for Portable Python (that's been a long time
request), but there's not too much of a worry in that you're not using
closed-source binaries, it's just the source for the installer isn't open
yet.  See the conversation here:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/portablepython/H6eygvoIepA/QQxcrWLgRYcJ.  I
only looked very briefly at doing py2exe, it looked a bit complicated to
get GTK working with it, though it's very possible this was because of my
lack of Python knowledge.
