The bug can be reproduced by running the code below on Windows:

-----8<-----------8<---------
from xml.etree import ElementTree as ET
import os

path = 'temp.xml'
f = open(path, 'w')
f.write('<whatever/>')
f.close()

ET.parse(path)
os.remove(path)
-----8<-----------8<---------

The result of execution is this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "rmbug.py", line 10, in <module>
    os.remove(path)
  File "C:\jython2.5.1\Lib\os.py", line 342, in remove
    raise OSError(0, "couldn't delete file", path)
OSError: [Errno 0] couldn't delete file: 'temp.xml'
