It didn't, but given the comments I've now succeeded to understand the
idea of dired-test-bug25609, and fixed it.

dired-test-bug27631 still fails, and it fails because of this:

          (setq buf (dired (expand-file-name "dir*/*.txt" dir)))

ls-lisp signals an error here:

   wrong-type-argument listp "dir*/*.txt"

Didn't you add a feature lately that should support this in ls-lisp?
I guess that feature needs to be turned on for this test to pass on
Windows.
