[issue1073] Mysterious failure under Windows

[Gabriel Genellina]

Gabriel Genellina added the comment:

Does the file exist before program is started, and remains after 
program finishes?
If it is your program which creates the file, you may have a race 
condition. Maybe some delays/retries will be enough, or perhaps you 
will have to use some other syncronization mechanisms.

Also, I see you use a relative path. Do you change the current 
directory (with os.chdir or similar)?
