A golden output that covers timestamps isn't possible. Also comparing the output of Eric's statx command with the output of the stat command as it stands isn't practical. I guess I can add another parameter to the stat command to produce something that looks the same. I'm tempted to write C-based python3 module that gives raw access to the system calls (something I want for the unionmount testsuite) and then script this in python. David
