OK, I fixed that, but unfortunately the checkin comment was correct:

    The Windows buildbot slaves shouldn't swap themselves to death
    anymore.  However, test_tarfile may still fail because of a
    temp directory left behind from a previous failing run.
    Windows buildbot owners may need to remove that directory
    by hand.

I did that on my box, and test_tarfile passes there now, but
test_tarfile is still failing on other Windows slaves; e.g.,

http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/x86%20W2k%20trunk/builds/694/step-test/0

...

WindowsError: [Error 183] Cannot create a file when that file already exists:
 'c:\\docume~1\\trentm~1.act\\locals~1\\temp\\testtar.dir\\directory'
