Hi Yuri,

I just tried with a clean wine prefix with python-2.7.3.msi and everything 
works as expected.  Given that the fonts are also broken it may be your prefix 
or installation is somehow broken.  

You could try:
# env WINEPREFIX=/tmp/python wine msiexec /i ~/python-2.6.msi
to check if it is your prefix that is broken.  Failing that try reinstalling 
the wine package (and check the checksum).  

Good luck,

Regards,

David
