I wouldn't expect the test scripters to write tests that involved files
which would only differ in the case of the alpha chars... however, if that
is indeed the case, you are right, the tests might have failed on cygwin,
and so I went to the 'same-file' test script to see if I could guess
something from it. As far as I could understand, the tests are failing on
the handling of symlinks/hardlinks. Any guess why is that happening?

I'm sending as an attachment the output of the error log, if anyone would
like to check it out. To obtain it, I uncommented the following line on the
test script:

# Uncomment this if you see a failure and want to try to diagnose it.
diff -u $expected $actual 1>&2

Thanks for the tips regarding the -i and -k flags, I didn't know about them.
However, I'm affraid of skipping these tests and running into problems later
(i.e. I don't know if it's safe to ignore them). I think I'll expect and see
if someone else makes a stand about it... otherwise I'll stick to the 3.16
version of fileutils that came with B20.1.

> Good luck.

Thank you very much for your help.

Best regards,

Andre
