Zim building problems

 

Is anyone else having trouble with trying to build Zim on Windows from the
current 0.67 source on github?  I'm actually able to fully build the
executables, but they won't run.

Here's what I get for the debugger output when I try to run the zim
executable:

With respect to the error referenced for line 663 of zim\main\__init__.pyo,
I can import gtk and gobject in IDLE without any issues.
