It may be a problem of code execution order.   Where does the sys.path
manipulation happen to add the private application path to sys.path?  If that
happens after the wrapper script tries to load the entry point, it will go
boom in the way Ben is describing.  sys.path has to be hacked before that, but
I don't think the entry point wrapper creation will do that automatically.
