The recent change mingw O_APPEND change breaks writing to named pipes on Windows. The first commit adds a new test to confirm the breakage and the second commit fixes the problem. These could be squashed together or we can just keep the fix and omit the test if that would be better. d641097589 (js/mingw-o-append) mingw: enable atomic O_APPEND The new mingw_open_append() routine successfully opens the client side of the named pipe, but the first write() to it fails with EBADF. Adding the FILE_WRITE_DATA corrects the problem.
