Generally when you get that you can just hit back and try again, it will work 
by the 4th try ;)

The idea is that _stat.c will use system-provided values wherever possible, but 
stat.py should be as accurate as we can make it to provide a backup for when 
_stat isn't around (either when it's just not built, which isn't an issue on 
Windows, or in another Python implementation).
