Not screening this one until Ganesh gives okay. Saw this when I looked at
the test scripts for 'darcs test' that you pointed me to.

  * tests: eliminate two windows checks
  
  I think we /can/ run tests on windows. And if not, this should be part of
  tests/lib.

Sorry for the delay with this one. The two tests fail on Windows
with this change.

For issue538, it's probably because a test script
can't be a shell script. Even though the test harness uses shell
scripts, darcs itself just invokes things as native tools.

For trackdown-bisect I think it's the same thing in that the
test-cmd is 'grep', and the native one on Windows doesn't behave
like the Unix one.

We should at least just use abort_windows for these though.
