Hello.

getmntent() in src/libc/compat/mntent/mntent.c sets LFN, but doesn't not
restore its original value, once it has finished. To work around a Win2k bug,
it sets LFN=n, to find volume labels, and then sets it to LFN=y, once it's
done. That's fine when LFN=y, but what if LFN=n initially?

Bye, Rich =]
