No, it's not about whether the file exists or not - when we have `bool exists(path, error_code&)`, a normal nonexistent file doesn't flag any error, and returns false - but this test expects the error code to be set. So its line 94 originally or 97 in the patched version, that fails on windows. (And I don't think there's much need in keeping the rest of this test and just ifdef out that single line, as we have other tests for nonexistent files above.)
