The test added by 534472375 is at the end, hundreds of lines later
than the one that appears to be failing.

Hmm, possibly yes (if it sees a non-symlink, it'll skip it). If
someone can run the test on an msys system, perhaps they could put a
debugging elog() into the code modified by 9d3444dc to log d_name and
the d_type that is returned? I'm struggling to understand why msys
would change the answer though.
