I really appreciate this well documented list of problems.  
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about gist to fix them quickly 
(especially gist on the Windows side).  Have you cross posted these 
comments to the pygist site?

It would take me a bit of time to track down these problems and fix them 
and so they have sat unattended.   Most of the problems are not simple 
Python fixes as far as I can tell.

I'm not sure who that is.  My experience is not huge and I'm don't know 
anyone with more experience than me (except the original authors and a 
handful of others none of whom are active on the scipy lists)

So, I'm writing to say sorry.  I don't think these issues will be 
addressed before the next Enthon release...
