Ah, ok. This means that the test is bogus. On Win95
(and, strictly speaking, NT+ installed on FAT), the
test will certainly fail, because FAT has no subsecond
resolution for file modification times (it doesn't
even have second resolution - the granularity is 2s).

This failure does not bother me much - os.stat itself
works just fine on this system. If you want to contribute
a patch to skip the test on W9x, please go ahead - but
IMO, there is no harm done having this test fail on
W9x for the rest of 2.5.x.

Regards,
Martin
