// The cache first creates a temporary file and then renames it to its final name.
// On Windows renaming internally creates a file handle with a shareMode which
// includes FILE_SHARE_DELETE. The Go runtime opens files without FILE_SHARE_DELETE,
// thus Open(fn) will fail until the file handle used for renaming was closed.
