Comment(by mlt):

 I recently had to install rtree into OSGeo4W64 myself. Note that one can
 install "properly" built python package EXEs with
 %OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\Python27\Scripts\easy_install.exe without registering
 OSGeo4W python. Also, if using OSGeo4W64, replace

 {{{
     rt = _load_library('spatialindex_c.dll', ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary)
 }}}

 with

 {{{
     rt = _load_library('spatialindex_c-64.dll', ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary)
 }}}

 around line 95 in core.py from rtree so OSGeo4W64 version of SpatialLib is
 used instead of a bundled one that fails to load probably due to incorrect
 mvc[rp]90.dll on the PATH.
