Summary: makepy fails for "Spotfire.Application"

Initial Comment:
When I run makepy from "Tools" menu for "Spotfire 
DecisionSite 8.1 Object library (1.9)", it generate 
the following error message:
=========================================
>>> Generating to C:\Python24\lib\site-
packages\win32com\gen_py\EE299BA0-BA43-11D0-96FA-
00A0C9011445x0x1x9.py
Failed to execute command:

     def None(self):
 SyntaxError: assignment to None
=============================================

This the piece of the code with syntax error:

=========================================
	def None(self):
		"""Puts the query device in the None 
state"""
		return self._oleobj_.InvokeTypes(3, 
LCID, 1, (24, 0), (),)
=========================================

Apparently, the problem occurs because the name 
conflict with "None". Somehow makepy.py should be able 
to catch it and get it around, or just ignore 
this "None" method.

Thanks.
