GetFileAttributes[W|A] returns a DWORD with this value when it 
couldn't determine the file's attributes. In the Python codebase, 
there are basically three values this is compared with, the above 
macro, 0xffffffff and (DWORD)-1, it should only be the macro.

However, this macro isn't defined in some SDKs (I don't remember if 
those were early MSVC versions or some MS Windows CE SDKs), so we also 
need to work around that.

I'm currently preparing a patch that resolves those including the 
workaround when the macro isn't defined.
