No, it doesn't work but I think that's might be due to the bug in 
"reload". I still get:

C:\integrator\dist>run
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "run.py", line 2, in ?
   File "peak\running\commands.pyc", line 4, in ?
   File "peak\running\interfaces.pyc", line 3, in ?
ImportError: No module named interfaces

I'm not so sure it is just due to a bug in reload. py2exe puts 
everything in library.zip and sets sys.path to library.zip. So I thought 
I could fool it and unzip the content of library.zip to a directory 
named library.zip and it looks like it worked - my script runs. But, it 
still fails with the above error.
