Good point. In this case, we *know* it's access denied then, and not
some other error code.

And actually, when I look at the API docs, our case now seems to be
documented. Or am I misreading our situation. I have:

"If you call CreateFile on a file that is pending deletion as a result
of a previous call to DeleteFile, the function fails. The operating
system delays file deletion until all handles to the file are closed.
GetLastError returns ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED."
