Thinking about this a bit more this morning on the shuttle, there's a strong argument that this is a glibc bug, and that the stat() approach is a correct fix, if not necessarily the most ideal one. That argument is simply that glibc is caching data without a mechanism for invalidation; and a cache without invalidation is always a bug. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
