Indeed. Revised the patch by your suggestion.
However python3.8 on cygwin doesn't have os.add_dll_directory.

$ python3.8
Python 3.8.2 (default, Apr 9 2020, 21:39:49)
[GCC 9.3.0] on cygwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.add_dll_directory
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'os' has no attribute 'add_dll_directory'

Okay. Confirmed OSError is raised when os.add_dll_directory() fails (e.g. for non existent directory).
Revised the patch to catch only OSError.

See attached patch py38-windows-add-dll-directory--v2.diff.
