Oh! That's an interesting theory; it'd explain why this broke recently,
because we didn't use to use that function. But how do you draw that
conclusion from this stack trace?

Anyway, if you've diagnosed this correctly, I bet the fault is in
this bit in win32stat.c:

#if _WIN32_WINNT < 0x0600
IO_STATUS_BLOCK ioStatus;
FILE_STANDARD_INFORMATION standardInfo;
#else
FILE_STANDARD_INFO standardInfo;
#endif

Maybe the version cutoff is wrong? Maybe we have to do this with
a run-time version check, instead of statically compiling it?
