The only places where fstat looks at _USE_LFN is in the call to 71a6
and inside set_fstat_times (or friends 57xx functions).  This doesn't
include external functions fstat calls; I don't think they test
whether LFN is enabled, but I didn't check.

If _is_executable is the suspect, it can be disabled by setting the
_STAT_EXEC_MAGIC bit in _djstat_flags.

Note that fstat itself calls the lseek function (4200/4201), directly
or indirectly, several times.  So if something's wrong with that
function, it either should be wrong right from the start, or something
inside fstat makes it misbehave.
