issue9035.3.patch has switched to the new memory management API and has 
tweaked the tests slightly for robustness.

This approach does introduce a behavioural change: the root of a SUBSTed 
drive (essentially a symlink into the Dos namespace) will raise an 
OSError because GetVolumePathName returns error 87: invalid parameter. 
So os.path.ismount("F:\\") will fail where F: is the result of running, 
eg, "SUBST F: C:\temp".

I think the simplest thing is to special-case drive roots (which are 
always mount points) and then to apply the new GetVolumePathName logic.
