New submission from Hirokazu Yamamoto <ocean-c...@m2.ccsnet.ne.jp>:

Due to r68455, os.listdir fails on debug build (windows).

Probably a following XP Buildbot error comes from same reason.

http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/trunk.stable/x86%20XP-4%
20trunk/builds/1759/step-compile/0

This error is raised near Modules/posixmodule.c (2205)

        Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS
        result = FindNextFile(hFindFile, &FileData);
        Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS
        /* FindNextFile sets error to ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES if
           it got to the end of the directory. */
        if (!result && GetLastError() != ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES) {

GetLastError() is sometimes 0 when should be ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES.
This happens because, on debug build, Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS finally
reaches PyThread_get_key_value in Python/thread_nt.h, and TlsGetValue
in it calls SetValueError(0) when function succeeds. See
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686812.aspx

I've attached the patch to fix this. I believe LastError set by
TlsGetValue on its failure is not used anywhere.
