Comment (by itamarst):

 Oh, actually: the default select() reactor will attempt to load some of
 the win32eventreactor code in order to better support certain
 functionality on Windows, e.g. serial ports. (It tries to run a parallel
 win32event loop in a thread). This is probably why you're seeing the
 warning even if you're using the select() reactor. If, as davidsarah is
 seeing, pywin32 is not installed this additional functionality will be
 skipped.

 So, you can just ignore that warning: it will only show up for people who
 already have pywin32 installed, in which case telling them they maybe want
 to upgrade isn't that big deal.
