But the same is true for

  str"i"ng.h

This file can be added on GNU/Linux to fossil but cannot be checked out
on Windows.

This seems to me an inconsistency. Either support all allowed filenames
per OS and skip them on OSes that cannot support them, or go with the
set of filenames that all OSes can support (at least the mainstream
ones).

But being able to add str"i"ng.h but not str\i\ng.h seems strange to me.
