Bug Description
When calling open_file, we transform the path given as argument from a 'syncdaemon' path into a 'windows' path. We use that new path to call open(), and we return the result as is.
The problem is that the returned file object has its name set to the windows-valid path, and if that is used from outside the os_helper module, we'll get path assertions failing.
