I guess there are two problems: a) MS_WINDOWS isn't defined, and the
relevant code in bltinmodule.c doesn't special-case cygwin, and b)
setlocale is defined on Cygwin, but doesn't work.

I found that in many cases, this is a virus scanner or the indexing
service interfering. They open the file, and then the test suite cannot
delete it.
