New submission from erik flister:
normally, CDLL(find_library('c')) is fine. but when running embedded in a
context that uses a different runtime version, this will cause an error
(example:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30771380/how-use-ctypes-with-msvc-dll-from-within-matlab-on-windows/).
using ctypes.cdll.msvcrt apparently finds the correct runtime. i was surprised
by this, i thought this was supposed to be identical to find_library('c').
in any case, some libraries (uuid.py) use the one that breaks. can you either
switch everything to ctypes.cdll.msvcrt, or have find_library('c') change to be
identical to it?
