I am working with several groups getting the Win32 port ready for 7.4
and I have a few questions:
What is the standard workaround for the fact that rename() isn't atomic
on Win32? Do we need to create our own locking around the
reading/writing of files that are normally updated in place using
rename()?
Second, when you unlink() a file on Win32, do applications continue
accessing the old file contents if they had the file open before the
unlink?
