It is - py2exe embeds python bytecodes. It seems it does it in the 
"library.zip" file (if I'm reading 
http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/moin.cgi/Py2Exe correctly). 
Bytecode files extracted should be decompilable to something resembling 
original python code by a python decompiler (quick Googling finds 
"decompyle": http://www.crazy-compilers.com/).
