Wow.  What a hairy function.  Thanks again for really diving in here.
The patch looks fine to me; clearly stat_buf should be filled in that
case.  Please push!

I (for one) am very happy to comment on patches :)  If at any time you
want comments from folks, please do continue to mail patches to the
list.  But, for patches that you consider to be obviously correct,
please feel free to use your judgment as to whether to push directly or
not.  Anyway, as you like :-)

Cheers,

Andy
