At present, os.access under Windows simply calls GetFileAttributes to determine the readonly attribute (ignoring directories). The patch attached combines this with the use of the AccessCheck API to compare the user's permissions with those required for the path. I'm assuming that ATTRIB and CACLS will be available for use in the unit tests included. I haven't altered the structure of the posix_access function at all although I suspect that it could now be simplified now that we're not supporting Win9x.
