You sure about that? Ever wondered why it is not so on everywhere else?

Pretty sure. If you look at Windows' native version of stat, it will
return you st_ino = 0. Or maybe you where referring to something else,
and I just missed your point?

AFAIK, the ino in the index is only to be _really_ sure that nothing
has changed with the file, and we can just skip it on Windows. If in
doubt, try running this on your Windows box:

#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>

int main(int, char **)
{
   wchar_t DirSpec[] = L".\\*";
   WIN32_FIND_DATA FindFileData;
   HANDLE hFind = FindFirstFile(DirSpec, &FindFileData);
   if (hFind == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) {
       printf ("Crap happened: %u\n", GetLastError());
       return -1;
}
   struct _stat buf;
while (FindNextFile(hFind, &FindFileData) != 0) {
       if (!_wstat(FindFileData.cFileName, &buf))
           printf("file: %S, ino: %u\n", FindFileData.cFileName, buf.st_ino);
   }

   FindClose(hFind);
   return 0;
}
