Based on the test name there may be an assumption built into the code
about how the filesystem behaves that isn't guaranteed on Windows/Cygwin
or even POSIX.  If it's simply an error condition not getting checked it
should be reproducible under debugging, but you're mostly out of luck if
it's relying on a specific order or atomicity of certain operations, as
debugging will almost always serialize the execution to the point where
these types of errors do not manifest.
