The main pip web page has these two helpful statements:
  "In the future it would be good if it could install binaries from
Windows .exe or .msi – binary install on other platforms is not a
priority"
  "Maybe it doesn’t work on Windows. At least, the author doesn’t test
on Windows often."

Looks like a pip issue, not ours.  easy_install gets this right AFAIR.
