I tried it in our CI and testRealPath fails consistently on all Windows 
clients.  This is JDK-8213216 rather than JDK-8232092. I know Brian was 
looking at JDK-8213216 at one point but we didn't come to a conclusion 
on supporting the scenario without creating inconsistencies. So maybe 
this test should be dropped from SubstDrive.
