I think I have that part of it solved:

   make libainstall  # not sure this was necessary, but it (re)copies
                     # the wanted files into /usr/local/ib/python2.7/config

   .../python2.7/Tools/freeze/freeze.py -P /usr/local/  # so freeze looks in the right place

Now I just have to figure out how to get _ctypes included...
