I have meant to work on a patch for several years now. I would like to drop usage of msvcrt's stat(3), and instead implement os.stat in terms of Windows API directly. That would also have the advantage that subsecond time-stamps can be exposed. There are several issues involved in implementing such a patch, though. One is that you need to do it twice: once for Win9x, and once for NT+, because you have to use Unicode file names on one system, and ANSI file names on the other.
