I added this NEWS entry, and I wanted to make sure it was correct:

* OS file locks are now taken out using ``CreateFile`` rather than
  ``LockFileEx`` on Windows. The locking remains exclusive with
  ``LockFileEx`` but now it also works on older versions of Windows
  (such as Win98). (Martin <gzlist>)

Does that fit what this patch is about?
