This was indeed the case with earlier versions of Bacula, but with more recent 
versions (sometime during 1.36 if I remember right), the Bacula code should 
*know* what is a Unix errno and what is a Windows error code.  If it is 
messing up on Windows error statuses, I would like to know.  It is rather 
easy to "forget" to set the Win32 error status correctly, so this kind of 
problem is quite possible.
