Many changes to get this to pass on Windows, and to make it easier to

figure out what the code was doing.  The fixes were a combination of
closing open files before deletion, opening files in binary mode, and
plain skipping things that can't work on Windows (BaseTest.decompress
uses a process gimmick that doesn't exist on Windows, and, even if it
did, assumes a "bunzip2" executable is on PATH).
