Well, it could be in the sense, that when they looked at the code to fix the issue in Linux, they realized how to fix it in Windows. So it could be indirectly responsible.
Also very unlikely, as (unmounted) network shares are accessed very differently from Windows and from Linux.
But maybe the right developer was working in that area of the code for a small fix or something, and happened to see what the issue was on Windows and knew how to fix it.

Yeah, it might be unrelated and just a coincidence. I just wanted to give another possible view. We can only speculate.
