Comment (by zeromus):

 It seems that the tahoe.exe included with Allmydata321Setup.exe behaves
 similarly to the tahoe 1.7.0 py2exe builds I was making. "tahoe start"
 yields "Can't find twistd (it comes with Twisted).  Aborting." while
 "tahoe run" just exits immediately. It turns out, this is because "tahoe
 run .\node" doesn't work. There are some docs or bugs somewhere that
 advise that "tahoe run ." doesn't work in windows--I thought that was
 strange, but did not expect it to apply to any relative path. Changing the
 command to "tahoe run c:\path\to\node" causes "tahoe run" to work as
 expected.

 Bug still remains: can't py2exe a tahoe build made with either python25 or
 python26. Am going to try bbfreeze when i get a chance.
