Obviously I'm going to have to fire up a Win32 box and see what's wrong 
over there.

Me either.  I tested easy_installing  on a Win32 box a long while ago, 
but apparently something has broken in the meantime.

Didn't realize we had those... I'll have to track them down and make 
sure they're accurate still...

It runs without alteration on an AMD64 Gentoo Linux box with Nvidia and 
latest CVS of PyOpenGL.  I'll have to fire up the Win32 box and see if I 
can track down the problem over there.  I'll keep you apprised.
