Eryk Sun added the comment:

The _ctypes extension module provides dlclose on POSIX and FreeLibrary on 
Windows. For the reasons already stated in this issue, ctypes should not 
automatically call these functions, but maybe they should be documented and 
imported to the ctypes module instead of being buried in the private _ctypes 
extension module. You could also implement them with ctypes itself, but the 
existing functions in the _ctypes module already set a proper exception if the 
call fails and properly use pointers (an HMODULE is a pointer).
