Just a note - the solaris implementation has a bug as the '/' character is not allowed in subfile names and this current implementation doesn't escape the attribute names - this is a potential security issue - it is not something I had overlooked - I just I had not added the escaping/unescaping code for this yet. The other implementations are not effected in this way. I will redo this patch.
I will in due course add some test cases for attributes with special characters ('/', ':", '\', etc). A windows implementation that uses :named streams will have the same issue and attribute names with special characters will need to be escaped.
