Bug in win32com importing under Quixote

-> I use Quixote, among other things, to generate server-side Excel worksheets
and provide updatable reports to my users; on a windows platform through com, of
course.
->
-> Switching to Quixote 1.2 from some older release, this statement stopped
working:
-> import win32com.client
->
-> The exception raised is:
-> ImportError: No module named pythoncom
->
-> I think the problem is similar to the Zope issue i read many times on the
mailing list: importing the module before calling enable_ptl() fixes the thing.
Because this simple workaround, i don't think the need for a bug fix is
pressing: i'm reporting the issue for information purpose.

I have a similar problem with BioPython (www.biopython.org).  Annoying
but minor ;).  Some day I will track down exactly what is happening...
