New submission from Antoine Brodin:

I have a file:

>dir c:\Windows\System32\scext.dll
14/07/2009  02:41            89 088 scext.dll

With Python 32 bits it fails:

>c:\Python27\python.exe
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 10 2012, 23:31:26) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on 
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.stat('c:\Windows\System32\scext.dll')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
WindowsError: [Error 2] Le fichier spÚcifiÚ est introuvable: 'c:\\Windows\\Syste
m32\\scext.dll'

With Python 64bits it succeeds:

>c:\Python27-x64\python.exe
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 10 2012, 23:24:47) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on
