On Windows (but not elsewhere) this fails with a "sharing violation":

path := "rename-after-open"
fd, err := os.OpenFile(path, os.O_RDWR|os.O_CREATE, 0600)
if err != nil { ... }
err = os.Rename(path_a, path_b)            // or os.Remove(path)
if err != nil { ... }                      // sharing violation
fd.Close()


Does anyone know of Windows apps that expect this error, which is 
undocumented?

Microsoft has suggested that Go on Windows should switch to Unix-like 
behavior:
