1. rpc-tests.sh - take out the exit if windows and also do not allow running of run-bitcoin-cli as it cannot be invoked as a windows process through python therefore:
  
  export BITCOINCLI=${BUILDDIR}/qa/pull-tester/run-bitcoin-cli
  
  changed to
  
  export BITCOINCLI=${REAL_BITCOINCLI}
2. util.py - allow for handling of windows NUL files as windows can not handle references to /dev/null
  
  And although not required to enable windows scripts, I added extra code around the creation of the "cache" files in the event one or several are missing as was happening while I was initially debugging the script for the first time.
