It seems I encountered issue #17797:
http://bugs.python.org/issue17797
Should I update the bug with my config? (i.e.: native x64 GUI application
embedding version 3.5a2, built with MSVC2013 SP4)
Don't even know if I can as a guest...
It is unclear to me whether or not a workaround will be implemented in 3.5
branch for pre-MSVC2015 compilers.
