The order (numpy, scipy, matplotlib) reflects the dependencies, but
since the installers are just fancied-up self-extracting zips, I don't
think it should matter.

It should be reasonably self-explanatory, I think.  Just start
Dependency Walker, open up the _path.pyd file, and it will show you
the full dependency tree.  Below that is a list of all the modules,
and any missing dependencies should helpfully show up right at the top
of the list.

Note that missing delay-load dependencies (those with an hourglass
icon) are not necessarily problems.  Since the error occurs at
load-time, you're looking for a missing module that would be loaded
immediately.
