Please find attached a patch for fstat.c that allows 0x71A6 to be used on
Windows NT/2000/XP if LFN is also enabled.

I hope I can explain the not not logic correctly.

The original stat code would return the value 0x124 for a file that only had
the attribute set. It should have returned a value of 0x1A4 wich indicates
thet the file has the read bit set (under dos the bit the corresponding bit
is the read only bit which was not set). Becasue of this issue on Win 2K
various issues would arrise, the main one is that when the link() function
was called the resulting file was read only!!!!

Another one bites the dust.

Andrew
