If the special case is in a w32 or dos file or somewhere in the nt
directory, that's obviously fine. I hope any such special case
doesn't clutter the mainline code, though, as it's Windows-specific.

I'd also like a simpler way to do it. But so far this
is the simplest code we've found, that avoids the bugs
in question. And it's not *that* bad. (Though perhaps my
standards are too high -- I've been reading the garbage
collector....)
