STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:

> os.lstat(bytes) should call win32_lstat()
> (which is removed by this patch) instead of stat()

Short history:
- 0a1baa619171: Fix #10027. st_nlink not set on Windows calls to os.stat/lstat
- 730b728e5aef: Implement #1578269. Patch by Jason R. Coombs.

730b728e5aef adds win32_lstat(), but it doesn't patch posix_lstat(). So your patch is not a regression, it's just that it was never supported.
