Description

By chance, I have a schema which results in SourceGenerator trying to create a
file called Con.java. This does not work on Windows, I assume because it is too
similar to "con", as in "copy con <file>". It's OK on Unix.

The SourceGenerator just catches the exception and says "unable to create file:
Con.java".

Maybe something slightly more useful would be nice that mentions that it is a
reserved name for Windows?
