New submission from Paul Moore:

Adds "exe wrapper" functionality to the Windows launcher. This is a preliminary 
patch, for comments - the code is there and works, but I need to add 
documentation (and maybe tests - are there any existing tests for the launcher?)

Also to be considered: should the launcher be bundled somewhere accessible to 
Python code (locating where the launcher has been installed is a non-trivial 
task) and supplementing that, should there be some sort of wrapper creation API 
in the standard library. The script wrapper functionality in distlib may be a 
good model for this, but may be too complex. I'd rather see this patch accepted 
without support code than see it deferred due to concerns about the 
quality/design of additional support code.
