One more thing you may want to exclude is HT. Here is a suggested
reroll. I reworded to avoid a subjective "truly platform-independent",
which is not what we intend to aim for anyway (we only try to support
the platforms we care about).

Subject: [PATCH] t/Makefile: make sure that paths can be checked out on
platforms we care
Some pathnames that are okay on ext4 and on HFS+ cannot be checked
out on Windows. Tests that want to see operations on such paths on
filesystems that support them must do so behind appropriate test
prerequisites, and must not include them in the source tree (instead
they should create them when they run). Otherwise, the source tree
cannot be even checked out.
Make sure that double-quotes, asterisk, colon, greater/less-than,
question-mark, backslash, tab and vertical-bar never appears in the
pathnames with a new test-lint-* target as part of a `make test`.
Noticed when a topic wanted to add a pathname with '>' in it. A
check like this will prevent a similar problems from happening.
