I can't reproduce this with the standard MingW (with or without MSYS)

According to Kooda, this happened on Mingw-64, not the "standard" Mingw.

Summary: file access test fails on windows with PLATFORM=mingwfile access test fails on windows (wine? only) with PLATFORM=mingw

According to jjhoo in #chicken, this fails in Wine. I have so far been unable to reproduce this in "real" Windows 7 in a VM, with Mingw-w64 and regular mingw (with and without msys) and msys2.

According to jjhoo in #chicken, this also fails in native Windows 10. I've only tested on 32-bit Windows 7 so far (The Windows 10 VM from modern.ie is too large to fit on any of my computers)

Correction: jjhoo says it goes OK on native Windows 10. So most likely this is an issue with the Wine DLLs.

Just checked with bare mingw-w64 on windows 10 64bits. It works fine.

It would be nice to check if it works on older windows versions as well, since we theoretically support every version since Vista.
