This is the default answer for any ticket in Twisted, but: absolutely not.  
Please go ahead and work away.

The ideal end-state here would be to replace not only the dependency on 
pywin32, but also the IOCP Pyrex support with an as-needed cffi wrapper for 
whatever Windows APIs we need.

In the meanwhile, hopefully the new "extras" support (arriving in a release any 
minute now) will mitigate the symptoms while we work on the root cause.
