Which kind of makes sense as neither of the feature they test can work on Windows.

Sure, but right now, without my patches (WIP) every test and every mock is just a compile-only test. We are not running any of the test so they are kind of pointless too. But if we are okay with just compile testing, then why not build the mock? But clearly you care more than I do, so please post a patch and I'm more than happy to review it. Michal
