But surely on some weird systems that might be valid? If the stat call
fails, it will return undef. It should therefore be safe to assume that if
the stat call does not return undef, it has suceeded and the results are
valid?
Its not that the stat call would fail, but that the
dev/file inode portions returned on the stat call
would be meaningless, like 0,0 or undef,undef
I believe I saw this a long while back on some win32 perl,
so that is why I test for the inode numbers at all.
