I can reproduce this. ctypes.test.testnumbers is easy to fix, but there are other severe problems with ctypes. I would love to look into these, but I prefer debugging on Windows. However, the windows build does not work because the fileio builtin module is missing from config.c. Again, this is not so easy to fix, because the ftruncate function does not exist on Windows.
I don't have a Windows box; contributions to fix this situation are welcome.
