+ o Major bugfixes (windows):
+ - Open files to be mapped with FILE_SHARE_DELETE so that we can
+ replace them before closing the mapping. This is a likely cause of
+ warnings and crashes when replacing the microdescriptor cache
+ file. Diagnosed based on comments by "doorss" and by Robert
+ Ransom. Possible fix for bug 2077; bugfix on 0.2.2.6-alpha.
