I'll note that the FTBFS is caused by a test failure in test "t.chown". stat(1) is used to check the expected owner of a file, and the test reveals (I think) a wrapping problem. I *think* the actual function called by stat(1) might not be wrapped in the running stat(1) process, but I cannot tell if this is a problem with the LD_PRELOAD approach or a missing wrapper or something else. Unfortunately most of the code seemingly relevant is "documented" using words like "hack", "stuff" and "shuffle", making it harder to follow than maybe necessary. Chris
