Description
Tried the following directly after downloading WinPython-32bit-3.4.4.2Qt5 on a machine running Win7 Enterprise SP1 64 bit/8GB:
- Double-click "WinPython Command Prompt.exe" in the installation dir
- on prompt,
cd .. - enter
python -c "import numba"
This throws the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):

As I understand it, self._name is llvmlite.dll. Changing into Lib\site-packages\llvmlite\binding where llvmlite.dll lives gives the same error.
As the same also happens on a Windows 8.1 machine, I suppose I am not the only one with this issue.
Otherwise (e. g. jupyter) or Qt5 apps work as expected.
