John: Thanks for the updated patch.
Charles-François: Certainly I can reduce the iterations to make the test faster. As it is, I did reproduce the failure on my dev system, but only once, after running John's test script about a dozen times: every other time, it completed successfully :-(
Isn't it simpler if I just replace the os.path.exists() calls with os.stat(), and check for ENOENT if an exception of type OSError or WindowsError occurs?
