Then I'd suggest to test ff_blk.ff_name against the filename part of
`path' that you pass to `findfirst', and if they don't match, treat that
`else if' clause as if it failed. In your case, you should see if
"BADFILE" matches "_BEAUT_DO.S", which fails. I think this isn't too
much of a kludge, because I'd expect from a *really* successfull call to
return a name that it was asked about, not something else.
