There was a recent test added to test_fileio.py which triggered runtime checks 
on windows.
I fixed this and other related issues in a series of revisions around 70580.
Now, I know that this msvc behaviour can be disabled, but it was decided that 
it was not appropriate to meddle with runtime flags of the whole process for 
python.
It is unfortunate that a dialogue box is put up, even when the process is 
running without a UI.  I wonder if there is a way to fix that without changing 
the way python is compiled...

At least at some point in the past, it didn't check to see if there
was an attached window station.  But the dialog can be disabled in
debug mode by using the _set_error_mode function.
