As far as I can tell, _mkdir(name) is equivalent to CreateDirectoryA(name, 
NULL), except one uses errno and the other uses GetLastErrno.  It is definitely 
possible that there's something I don't know, though, and the documentation 
doesn't explicitly state that they're equivalent.

With regard to the mode parameter, I noticed that the implementation of 
os.mkdir for Windows doesn't do anything with it, which probably means we can 
not worry about the mode parameter here as well?

os.mkdir's implementation just calls CreateDirectory(path, NULL).  The code is 
in a #ifdef MS_WINDOWS in posix_mkdir() in Modules/posixmodule.c.
