Description
Hi!
I could not import pyexchange 0.6 (installed via `pip install pyexchange` on babun/Cygwin on Windows 10) using ipython 2 nor 3:
```
Python 3.6.1 (default, Mar 24 2017, 12:50:34)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
IPython 4.2.1 -- An enhanced Interactive Python.

I tried to install etree via pip:
```
Collecting etree
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement etree (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for etree
```
So I tried ipython2 as well:
```

[GCC 5.4.0] on cygwin

Research direction
Start by reproducing `import pyexchange` in the reported Python and Cygwin environments, then read `pyexchange/base/soap.py` at its `from lxml import etree` import. Check the installed package and its declared dependencies; done means the package imports successfully in the supported environment.
