      Description

      On running the unit tests on the latest 2.8.7+ (Build: 20150730) - from the zip download - I'm seeing a single failure for core_messagelib_testcase::test_message_attachment_send:

      There was 1 failure:
      		 
       
      		 
      1) core_messagelib_testcase::test_message_attachment_send

      It turns out that this was because the patch for MDL-49787 broke the ability to send attachments with email_to_user() in Windows.
