I managed to get my setup working. Here are the notes I made at the time:

It appears that the problem was a 64-bit/32-bit confusion issue. The
problem goes away entirely if I follow the procedures below:
1. Open a cmd terminal.
2. Type CALL %VSFORPYTHON%\vcvarsall.bat amd64 [where VSFORPYTHON is
the appropriate Virtual studio folder]
3. Launch my IDE from that cmd environment rather than using a windows
shortcut.
