+   This followup on r896915, makes sure that the Windows specific remove
+   readonly attribute code still works on FAT32 filesystems. (The FAT32
+   driver reports a very different error than the NTFS driver)
+   Justification:
+     Without this patch, users using a USB stick formatted with this
+     filesystem will see 'file exists' errors on some working copy
+     operations. (This patch should have been part of the r896915
+     group). I certainly don't recommend using FAT32 to host a
+     subversion working copy. But AnkhSVN reports show that it is a
+     common user scenario.
