Thanks for you quick reply, Howard.  I don't know enough about compilers and windows to suggest the best approach here, but I would think that if it had "32" or "64" in the name, particularly if they were listed right next to each other on the web site, that people would choose the appropriate one.  Regardless of how you go, I'm excited that you knew why it wasn't working and that you can create a new one without too much effort - I've already spent a lot of time troubleshooting (without luck, obviously).  Thanks for your efforts!!

Those DLLs were compiled 32-bit.

I can compile the 64-bit, but I wonder how we should package them so the right one gets loaded.  Should we put both DLLs in the package and have the DLL loading ctypes code determine it is 64-bit and use the right one? Or should we just make 64-bit-only packages and depend on the user to pick the right one?  Can easy_install support this too?  I'm not much of a windows python user to know which way to go here, input appreciated...
