 done in trunk.

 I think that it's because r65323 deferred closing the null file (because a
 compressed null file needs to have the row pointers written out), meaning
 that the file is still open at the time of the rename() call. This is
 valid on Unix but not on Windows (although the MSDN documentation neglects
 to mention this in the description of the EACCESS error for rename()).

 So, the order needs to be:

 * Write out row pointers
 * Close file
 * Rename file
