[Numpy-discussion] Win32 installer: please test it

[Bill Baxter]

What's the installer supposed to do?
It appears to have decided I have SSE3 extracted an sse3 exe to
somewhere, and then quit without doing anything else.  I can't seem to
find where it put the numpy-1.0.5-sse3.exe it extracted, either.

The details, say "Execute: numpy-1.0.5-sse3.exe" but no executing
seems to have happened.
