See https://github.com/earwig/mwparserfromhell#installation and https://github.com/earwig/mwparserfromhell/issues/68 It was added as a dependency in Iaa77c0f7e0f7885f08c90581bde86c2c2aa88720.
My email to the list about this http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/pywikipedia-l/2014-June/008778.html I suggested that we don't specify mwparserfromhell as a dependency for Windows users as a temporary solution.
Change 136702 had a related patch set uploaded by Legoktm: Only set mwparserfromhell as a dependency for non-Windows users https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/136702

Reopened: A solution for Windows user should be done.
Installing mwparserfromhell using pip2.7 works for me on 32 bit Windows, with and without its C parser enabled. The pip installation looked nothing like https://github.com/earwig/mwparserfromhell/issues/68 (it doesnt try to compile anything), so I presume that they have rebuild/redistributed mwparserfromhell 0.3.3 with the dll due to the changes/recommendations by valhallasw. It looks like this issue is solved, and when mwparserfromhell 0.4 is released we should re-add the dependency for MS Windows.
