That is indeed the case. It's an ancient bug in our wrapper
mingw_open().

Not a comment, on this paragraph of yours, but while I was walking
through the code with gdb, I was wondering why the reflog directory is
being touched at all when core.logallrefupdates is off (in
log_ref_setup via log_ref_write). With the patch below I now get the
same unlink warning as on Linux.

Subject: [PATCH] Windows: correct detection of EISDIR in mingw_open()

According to the Linux open(2) man page, open() returns EISDIR if a
directory was attempted to be opened for writing. Our emulation in
mingw_open() does not get this right: it checks only for O_CREAT. Fix
it to check for one of the write flags.

This fixes a failure in reflog handling, which opens files with
O_APPEND|O_WRONLY, but without O_CREAT, and expects EISDIR when the
named file happens to be a directory.
