FIX #1280: getPermissions wasn't working on Vista
It turns out that _access() in the Windows C runtime used to ignore
the X_OK flag, in Vista it now returns an error.  After browsing the C
runtime sources, I discovered that _stat() has an almost but not quite
completely bogus implementation of the st_mode field, which lets us
implement a slightly less incorrect approximation to getPermissions than does
_access().
