Comment(by jef):

 Replying to [comment:4 mlt]:
 > I wonder if there is a danger to pick up wrong python this way as there
 are common scenarios to have a few python installations and non-OSGeo4W
 may be on the PATH.

 OSGeo4W starts off a clean path.  So unless you explicitly add your
 pythons into PATH from within OSGeo4W you should be fine.
