Thanks, but I should have mentioned that at this time this patch was just
meant for exposition, not inclusion. [It's just one of many, many patches
needed to make the test suite pass on MinGW.]

I'd prefer a solution to the problem that the pack file remains open. Do
you have an idea where git-pack-objects keeps the pack file open, even
with Alex's two patches applied?
