While running the executable win32 installer directly works fine, easy_install (in distribute 0.6.14) doesn't seem to like it. It seems to have trouble with the DLLs (they don't get installed). So if Shapely were installed automatically as a requirement of something else, it would appear to succeed but not work properly. Here's what easy_install says:
