The _ctypes extension module does currently not even build on Win64. I'm (slowly) working on this (for AMD64, not for itanium), but it may take a good while before it is stable - It is not even fully implemented currently.
The win64 msi installer installs the ctypes package anyway, but it cannot be imported. I suggest that it should be removed from the 2.5 win64 msi installers, so that at least, when it is ready, can be installed as separate package.
