See for instance https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=488396

The selinux configuration for many systems disallow import of ctypes in an enforced environment, causing a MemoryError. Since ctypes is only used in two places in util.py it seems like an easy thing to import ctypes in the except clause of those two cases instead.
