import pymeshlab crashes on Windows 11 on 2023.12.post2

[SharkWipf]

On Nerfstudio, there have been several recent reports (nerfstudio-project/nerfstudio#3461, more on discord) by Windows users of their ns-export commands closing without error.
Analyzing the dump in visual studio produces the following:

We have narrowed the issue down to this line specifically, aka import pymeshlab.

Downgrading to pymeshlab==2023.12.post1 resolves the issue, so the issue seems to be specific to pymeshlab==2023.12.post2.
Confirmed on, at least, Python 3.8.20 and Numpy 1.24.4, on Windows 11.

In theory, simply running an import pymeshlab on Windows 11 should be enough to reproduce this issue.

(I have not personally reproduced this yet as I don't have access to a Windows machine I could test this on right now, though I've helped narrow it down. At least 5 people reported this issue over the past few days however.)

I can confirm this issue is still present in the latest pip install pymeshlab.
