This line is problematic.
self.assertEqual(stat.S_IMODE(p.stat().st_mode), 0o555 & mode)

>From http://docs.python.org/2/library/os.html#os.chmod:

Note
Although Windows supports chmod(), you can only set the file’s read-only flag with it (via the stat.S_IWRITE and stat.S_IREAD constants or a corresponding integer value). All other bits are ignored.

In Django, we skip chmod test on Windows.
https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/tests/staticfiles_tests/tests.py#L830

But this line is okay:
self.assertEqual(stat.S_IMODE(p.parent.stat().st_mode), mode)

So we should just skip that particular problematic line on Windows.
