This version of is_readonly is racy. So for win32 we should try 
to avoid this. An non-racy version would look like this?  (right?)

bool is_readonly(patch const & ph)
{
        DWORD const attr = ::GetFileAttributes(ph.string().c_str());
        return (attr != INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES
                && (attr & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY));
}
Yeah, that should work.
