title: numpy import fails when Python is embedded in C++
body: <p>I've got a problem when accessing numpy with Python 2.7 embedded into my C++ application (32-bits) and statically linked. Under my application executable, I've placed python27.dll along with the Python27 directory with all needed DLLs. I've also installed Python 2.7 and numpy (all 32-bits) in a separate folder (C:\Python27). When I run my application and try to import numpy, here is the error I receive: </p>

  <p>When I delete python27.dll from my application folder, then I am able to import numpy. I cannot ask the client to manually delete python27.dll when he wants to import any Python third-party library... anyone has ideas on how I can fix that? What's up with this multiarray module?</p>
