Have you tried installing the DLLs to C:\Python2x or to the same
directory as the numpy .pyd? As far as I know, this should work.

Obviously there are some issues: multiple modules might be linked to
MKL, in which case you would be duplicating a lot of files, but hey,
so it goes. Ideally, all the modules should be using one module to
interact with native BLAS and LAPACK.

In my opinion, modifying the PATH or installing to System32 are not
ways to properly deploy DLLs on Windows.
