mingw: demonstrate that all file handles are inherited by child processes

When spawning child processes, we really should be careful which file
handles we let them inherit.

This is doubly important on Windows, where we cannot rename, delete, or
modify files if there is still a file handle open.

Sadly, we have to guard this test inside #ifdef WIN32: we need to use
the value of the HANDLE directly, and that concept does not exist on
Linux/Unix.
