Summary: os.utime acess denied with directories on win32
Initial Comment:
Try the following code:
>>> import os
>>> os.mkdir('8')
>>> os.utime('8',None)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
WindowsError: [Error 13] Access is denied: '8'
>>>
This fix passes correct flags to CreateFile to
successfully open directories (when built with wide
filenames support, in other case native utime is used
and msvcrt has the very same bug).

The patch looks wrong. Opening a file with
FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS requires the SE_BACKUP_NAME. If
the user does not have the privilege, opening will fail.
This is wrong, because the user still might be able to
change the time stamp of a regular file.
