Summary: os.listdir doesn't check error code from FindNextFile

Initial Comment:
The Windows implementation of listdir returns 
successfully as soon as FindNextFile returns False, 
without checking that GetLastError returns 
ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES.  If the operation is interrupted 
(eg removable media ejected, network connection to UNC 
path lost, and so on) an incomplete directory listing 
is returned instead of throwing an exception.
This behaviour exists in 2.4.3 and 2.5b2.
