@nitzmahone Matt, please merge this if it looks OK to you. |

Wanted to get the existing 1.17.0 bits out there without making folks wait for an rc2, but this looks like a good candidate for a 1.17.1. |

We use
cffiwithin a Windows application we cross-compile from x64 to arm64. In order to properly buildcffi, we patchsetup.pyto detectVSCMD_ARG_TGT_ARCH. We're upstreaming this fix here in case it's helpful to others.This was previously suggested by @zooba in an older issue. This is a technique also used by
cibuildwheelandsetuptoolsitself (pypa/setuptools#2724).
