Whenever supply a directory to utime path parameter, exception raised.  The problem is MS C run time library utime function only works on files, but not directories.  To fix this bug, MS utime has to be replaced by some function that works with directory.

I submitted a patch that uses win32 api instead MSC run time library

Changed to Category "Modules".

Moved to PEP42, as extending the functionality of the platform utime is a new feature rather than a bug.  This is a borderline case, so my intent here is not to reject it out-of-hand for the next 2.0 beta, but to classify it as correctly as possible.
