I'm trying to build a Python MSI installer for Windows using the scripts
provided at Tools\msi\

msi.py runs fine and generates a python-xxx.msi file.
Then, when I run the merge.py script, I get these error messages:

e:\prog\python\py3k\Tools\msi\msilib.py:8: DeprecationWarning: the sets

The final .msi file appears to work fine as long as I can tell.
Error type 4 is "msmErrorTableMerge" and type 5 is
"msmErrorResequenceMerge", but I don't know enough of the msi technology
to tell if those errors are important or not.
