Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:

I haven't debugged it, but I'm guessing we're not handling the trailing slash 
properly when falling back to asking the parent directory for information.

Looking at the actual stat result for "C:\System Volume Information" vs. 
"C:\Windows", most of the information is missing in the first case, which 
should mean that we can't access it but we know it's a directory because the 
entry in C:\ said so.
