This is due to the refactoring of the convolution code. I think we should just remove the call to faulthandler, it’s not actually needed for the convolution code. And I agree that we should basically make sure the error message when importing for the source tree is the same as for other extensions. I’ll open a PR.

lib_convolve.py is also produced on windows via ./setup install.
