Austin, I'd really appreciate it if you could do that. Currently I cannot validate on Windows.
Thanks

| Hm, it doesn't look like the ctypes import is failing - it looks more
| like the DLL ctypes is trying to find doesn't exist? We seem to use
| ctypes to talk to a windows DLL to set the Code Page for the console.
|
| I'll look into deplying this new msys2 and fixing it. it's probably
| worth just upgrading the Windows build page to refer to it instead -
| seems like it's much more stable and a lot easier to use (especially
| since it comes with all those handy tools!)
