Release 1.0.11 broken on python3 with virtualenv

I’m not sure of the exact scope of the breakage, but I have found prompt_toolkit to be reliably non-importable in a clean Python >= 3.5 virtualenv on a vanilla system. The affected version is 1.0.11; 1.0.10 works as expected.

Python 2 is unaffected:

I have not tested whether this affects Python 3 outside of a virtualenv, but I would assume it is likely.

Ok, great. I took me three tries before I got the build right. That’s why we’re jumping from 1.0.10 to 1.0.13. Thanks a lot for reporting.

Thanks for the quick resolution.
