Zenmap build error

[Fyodor <fyodor () insecure org>]

The new Nmap release built fine on Linux and Windows, but when I
tested the Windows installer there was a problem.  When I try to run
the Zenmap.exe, it reports that "The specified resouce type cannot be
found in the image file. Could not locate script resource".  So I
looked at the Windows package build logs ('make' in mswin32/) and see
this:

Creating dist and dist\share directories...
Copying GTK's share to dist directory...
Compiling using py2exe...
Traceback (most recent call last):

Copying some more GTK files to dist directory...
Removing the build directory...
Done!
cp -R ../zenmap/dist/* ../zenmap/COPYING* ../zenmap/README nmap-4.69BETA1/zenmap
cp nsis/AddToPath.nsh nsis/Nmap.nsi nsis/shortcuts.ini nsis/final.ini nmap-4.69BETA1

This py2exe crash is a likely culprit.  Anyone have ideas for fixing
this?  I verified that if I downgrade to -r8514 (e.g. 4.68 release), Nmap
builds a working installer and does not give that Traceback.

Cheers,
