Because these are fixed-forever constants, I suspect in library code and the like people would just KISS and use an integer literal and a comment, avoiding the import/constant thing:
The stat module exposes a load of constants - why not add the (currently known) ones there? Finding the values of Windows constants if you don't have access to the C headers can be a pain, so having them defined somewhere as named values is useful.
