@larryhastings: Hey, here is a fix for Python 3.5 for https://bugs.python.org/issue38174 :

The Visual Studio project files are modified to remove Modules/expat/loadlibrary.c which has been removed from libexpat 2.2.8. Well, this change is just a backport from the master branch.

I've asked Ned and Julien to look at the Sphinx failure on Travis CI. Hopefully one of 'em will sort it out.

I rebased my PR on top of the commit edd9bc9 to fix the doc job of Travis CI.
