Many thanks - my first contribution.  I'm quite chuffed with that.

Just off by a couple of typos:

line 54:
     config_imports = __import__("Bio.config", {}, {}, ["Bio"]).__file__)
should be (don't need __file__ attribute)
     config_imports = __import__("Bio.config", {}, {}, ["Bio"])

line 57:
     if hasattr(config_imports, '__loader__':
should be (missing parenthesis):
     if hasattr(config_imports, '__loader__'):

line 66:
         x = os.listdir(config_imports.__file__))
should be (os.path.dirname call):
         x = os.listdir(os.path.dirname(config_imports.__file__))

But I can't guarantee having caught everything ;)

No problem - a rationale for what's there is at the py2exe wiki:
