Please add something like this to the commit message lest future readers wonder where that !MINGW comes from:

	On Windows, shell scripts are not natively executable. Git has a
	workaround to execute them, looking for the shebang line. Shell
	scripts without a shebang line will simply not execute on Windows.
	Therefore, disable the new test on Windows.

Thanks, Dscho
