I had trouble with building wheels ("Python executable could not be found") and fixed it by specifying the vsenv option for cibuildwheel. A similar flag is used by numpy as well, so this is probably indeed needed.

Thanks @tobiasdiez. This is helpful, I've seen other people need this. I suggest one tweak.

@rgommers Thanks for the suggestion and taking care of it. I'm pretty busy with other project at the moment, so couldn't react in time. Sorry!
