There are already many tests that require ctypes. See for example test_uuid.py.

I think the test is blocked on my question of whether we are allowed to rely on ctypes in the test suite. If so, it's fine as I recall. Fairly sure it's a Windows-specific test anyway, so ctypes can basically be assumed for all Windows platforms we currently care about.

Reminds me of the saying "perfection is the enemy of shipped". I'd help with getting the test committed but unfortunately it's well outside my area of expertise...
