Well, not having ':win32' is likely to cause trouble in other places.
Quick fix is to add ':win32' to featurs (we do similar thing on one
of BSD-s). Or maybe update all tests for more varied features
(but I would prefer to use small feature set if possible).
Concerning 'trim-directory-name' and 'pad-directory-name': there
is system dependency here and IMO it makes sense to guard it
with feature test. In such case 'trim-directory-name' should
have error clause in case of not satisfied feature test.
