My sense on the issue is that wintypes was added to the library and was never intended to raise a ValueError on import. By that logic, the behavior is a bug, not a new feature. I agree with Ezio that raising a ValueError on import is a bug. And since the patch not only addresses the ValueError on import, but simply addresses the underlying cause, it seems to me the most obvious solution.
