I agree the PEP should address these issues.  And since it is 
bikeshedding, as you say, I'm happy to just follow along.

I see no particular advantage to any of the choices, except that both 
"w", and ".exe" are Windows-only things, so making it "just like Unix" + 
Windows-only things would seem more convenient, in some ways.  So I'll 
start the voting for

python VERSION [w] .exe

as the windows sequence.  Whatever form of VERSION, with or without 
dots, is done for Unix seems good for Windows too, as far as I can tell.
