Comment (by dd32):

 Tested OK on a Windows 7 box..

 However, is_writable() works as expected for me on windows 7 with PHP
 5.4.4, Denying write causes is_writable to return false, Allowing Write
 but not Delete causes both is_writable() and is_win_writable() to return
 true (although the latter makes a PHP Warning (Unable to delete the test
 file)). I'd be interested in finding the configurations which cause it to
 fail..

 win_is_writable() will also need to move from wp-admin/includes/misc.php
 to wp-includes/functions.php, although core doesn't use get_temp_dir()
 outside of the admin, if it's available to plugins so it should work.
