Since the upgrade to jnr-posix-3.0.1 (in change set #01460e803ef3) Jython no longer runs on Windows.

>dist\bin\jython -S
Jython 2.7b2+ (default:01460e803ef3+, May 15 2014, 22:23:42)
[Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (Oracle Corporation)] on java1.7.0_51
>>> import os
>>> os.stat("macbeth.txt")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NotImplementedError: stat

Without the -S, it just (Python) stack dumps during site.py.

I've traced my way into jnr.posix.WindowsPOSIX.stat, but at the point where it accesses the native code (interface jnr.posix.WindowsLibC) it gets UnsatisfiedLinkError. It's perhaps more surprising that it used to work.

Seems like this would be a showstopper for 2.7b3.
