TypeError after upgrade to 2.0

[Krystian Rosiński]

After upgrade keyring to 2.0 I got the TypeError (traceback below). New version select keyring.backends.Windows.RegistryKeyring as default backend on Windows and it looks like a bug in _win_crypto.py module. Could someone confirm this? 

keyring.backends.file.PlaintextKeyring and keyring.backends.Windows.EncryptedKeyring are working properly.

Windows 7 64-bit, Python 3.3.2 32 bit

Simple test:

>>> import ctypes

>>> ctypes.c_char_p("foo")

Traceback (most recent call last):
