Summary: py2exe fails missing "version" file in OpenGL/__init__.py

Initial Comment:
In OpenGL/__init__.py you find out the current version
by doing:
	filename = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),
'version')
	__version__ = string.strip(open(filename).read())

However, once things are packed up by py2exe,
__init__.py is actually inside a zipfile, and there is
no "version" file for it to read.

The easiest fix that I've found is to just wrap the
above in a try/except block, and use whatever the
current version should be.

For example
    try:
        filename =
os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'version')
        __version__ = string.strip(open(filename).read())
    except OSError:
        __version__ = '2.0.2.01'


Even if you did something that indicated an "unknown"
version, or something else, it would be nice to have
pyOpenGL work out of the box when packed up.

Thanks,
John
