Well, I cannot imagine a direct way. However, you can hack things. Try
to add a '_deps.py' file in your package, and put there all the
required imports for Cython-generated extension modules.

Note that I've never used py2exe, but regarding the way (I believe) it
works, perhaps the suggested hackery will hopefully solve your
problems.
