Tue Dec 7 20:32:24 PST 2010


This is the second version of patch.

It now uses fstat instead of stat as recommended in
review comments from:
    Philipp Hagemeister <phihag at phihag.de>.
Bug was reported by:
    Krzysztof Żelechowski <giecrilj at stegny.2a.pl>

Signed-off-by: Pat Kane <pekane52 at gmail.com>

P.S. also attached, in case gmail munges the whitespace...
