Tim Golden <m...@timgolden.me.uk> added the comment:

Obviously someone's code would break if it were relying on the Unix 
errno only in a Windows-only situation to determine the situation of 
opening a directory which isn't one. But that combination of events 
doesn't seem terribly likely.

Speaking for myself, since the exception is a WindowsError with the 
winerror attribute prominent, [Error 267] I'd be far more likely to be 
trapping that.

I say go ahead
