When you try to build a C extension on Windows without having a C compiler, distutils tries to raise DistutilsPlatformError("Unable to find vcvarsall.bat"). However, on Python 3.5, it doesn't do that -- instead it lets a WinError(2 "no such file or directory") from _find_vcvarsall escape.
This breaks packages such as zope.interface that ship optional C modules for faster execution, but would like to work on people's computers even when there is no C compiler. See https://github.com/zopefoundation/zope.interface/issues/24 for details.

Do you have a full stack trace for that exception? I don't see anywhere that should be able to raise WinError in _find_vcvarsall. |

Ah, found it in the linked thread. I'll fix for 3.5.1. |
