Ah, that's it.  I had 5.0 installed, once I did "pip install
cx_freeze==4.3.3", I got past that issue.  Now it's saying
cx_Freeze.freezer.ConfigError: cannot find file/directory named
C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\gnome\libgnutls-26.dll

Do we have any documentation of the versions of dependencies to install to
build the MSI?  All I found was https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Meld/Windows,
which didn't mention installing cx_freeze or python-gnutls.
