Following Gerd's comments, here is an updated patch that also improves
the internal error handling. It follows Gerd's approach.
He has not answered my previous e-mail but he has indicated he would
be in vacation for two weeks, so this is not unexpected.
I have also verified that the code passes
This patch is a merge of what Gerd sent on July 17 and of
my changes to match the improved capability of the driver.
This is the first time I run the testsuite, and it was on WinME.
There were more failures than I expected, e.g. in mmap. I don't
know how this compares to NT.
