OK, but I need more information on how users will see a difference based
on this commit:

Fix our Windows stat() emulation to handle file sizes > 4GB.
Hack things so that our idea of "struct stat" is equivalent to Windows'
struct __stat64, allowing it to have a wide enough st_size field.
Instead of relying on native stat(), use GetFileInformationByHandle().
This avoids a number of issues with Microsoft's multiple and rather
slipshod emulations of stat(). We still need to jump through hoops
to deal with ERROR_DELETE_PENDING, though :-(
Pull the relevant support code out of dirmod.c and put it into
its own file, win32stat.c.
Still TODO: do we need to do something different with lstat(),
rather than treating it identically to stat()?
