Moved code in swigptr.c into a python string, swigptr.swigptr_code. This makes it where the code doesn't have to be read out of a file in the directory path and makes it easier on py2exe like programs that bundle code into an exe file. [see bug 37]

I think weave will still not work in bundled applications because it referes to a lot of other external files in the scxx directory and blitz directories.  Still, these are not read during import, so they at least don't cause the scipy import to fail.

We should look for a way to make weave work from py2exe binaries in the future.
