+ * Windows File Handling Inconsistency Tests
+ * ==========================================
+ *
+ * This test suite highlights inconsistencies between Windows and Unix
+ * implementations of file handling in chunkio:
+ *
+ * 1. Delete while open/mapped: Windows allows deletion of open/mapped files
+ *    while Unix correctly rejects it
+ *
+ * 2. Sync without mapping: Windows accesses cf->map without checking if it's
+ *    NULL, which can cause crashes
+ *
+ * 3. File mapping size mismatch: CreateFileMapping uses current file size
+ *    but MapViewOfFile may request a larger size, causing potential issues
+ *
+ * 4. File descriptor check: cio_file.c uses Unix-specific cf->fd check
+ *    instead of platform-agnostic cio_file_native_is_open()
+ *
+ * These tests are designed to demonstrate the issues and verify behavior.
