That would be a bad idea. Presumably most users of CFFI on MS-Windows don't 
have MS-VC (or Mingw). But IMHO all users should be entitled to run a testsuite.

IMHO not really a problem, because the .dll will stabilize, while the testsuite 
will continue to grow.

Strict solution: add a version number (foreign-var) to the .dll and check it 
when loading the testsuite.  Then people will know when it is outdated and hope 
for a new one from the CFFI site.  As I said, presumably the .dll will receive 
seldom updates.
