[snip attempted Windows build]

I've given up trying to build anything on Windows, it's just too much 
like hard work.  So go to http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ and 
download Kivy-1.9.0+sdl2-cp27-none-win32.whl or 
Kivy-1.9.0+sdl2-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl as appropriate.  Then use "pip 
install" against the local file name.
