Apparently, there is some weird code importing the codecs that py2exe or
McMillan installer cannot correctly figure out. I had the same problem some time
ago, which I solved by simply importing explicitely the codecs module via an:

import codecs

somewhere in the code. This seems to fix up things for McM's installer (never
used py2exe).

I had a similar problem with the McMillan installer. This wasn't solved
by adding:

import codecs

but it was solved by adding

import encodings
