ticket 570 but rather got lost.

Summary:
1) issues discovered when running WinGRASS along with a already installed
or later installed
indepentant Python distribution. In particular PythonXY.
2) PythonXY was updated and is mostly upto date.
3) PythonXY developer states that his distribution is fine.
4) the issues occured at least at 3 installations
5) 2 workarounds were found.

Todo:
1) check this "python-win32" package.
2) try to package WINGRass in a way that is does not interfere with other
Python installations.

> Also, should this ticket be reopened if the problem is not yet resolved?
Did so.
