- the posix 1003.1 standard has cleverly evaded naming of bits
- in the mode field of the stat structure. it does this by
- defining tests (like S_ISDIR(mode) rather than (mode&S_IFMT)==S_IFDIR).
- the question is, how do people deal with sym links? I simply
- added a S_ISLNK macro but would prefer to go with the flow
- if there is one.
