Thanks.  I think I have enough test results now.  As it turned out,
it doesn't make the faintest sense to use NtQueryFullAttributesFile.
It's pity since it seemed such a nice way to simplify the code.  Right,
but unfortunately every call is actually converted to 3 calls internally,
open/query/close.  Which doesn't make a lot of sense if you already have
a handle to the open file.  Oh well.

Thanks again to all testers,
Corinna
