Hello,

I still this bug with current refresh - so what was the outcome of the
discussion in January?  I've read the relevant thread and see that a
fix for lstat() was made.  But I don't think that lstat() is the only
problem here, because I've seen this particular bug in win98se too. At
that time I've tracked it to bug in bash sources and sent a fix to
Mark. What's the status of that fix? BTW, Mark, could you please
re-send me that fix? I managed to lose it :(
