Same thing happens with current python 2.6 and its matching pywin32.  
The important bit from your log seems to be

0009:Call KERNEL32.GetModuleHandleA(7c37f0c0 "mscoree.dll") ret=7c348ce0
0009:Ret  KERNEL32.GetModuleHandleA() retval=00000000 ret=7c348ce0
0009:Call KERNEL32.ExitProcess(00000000) ret=7c348d04

It's trying to see if mscoree.dll is already loaded, and if it isn't,
it exits.  
Oddly enough, once when I ran winetricks dotnet20, twisted's installer
immediately popped up its gui from a previous run!  Go figure.

According to http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/Downloads.html,
the pywin32 installer is built using distutils (!).
Sure enough, distutils seems to be able to build both msi
and .exe installers.  So maybe the thing to do is to try
building a distutils installer for "hello, world" and see
if that works.
