This file documents bugs which have no obvious solution at the moment.
If they did have an obvious solution, they would be in TODO instead.
*** The date of a softlink is always Jan 1, 1970 and this is unlikely
to be fixed until a future version of AmigaDOS includes a efficient
function to obtain the date of the linked to file.
*** The library uses the fib_DiskKey field from the FileInfoBlock
structure to fill the st_ino field of a stat structure. For most
'normal' file systems this works quite well as that field records
the position of the file on the (hard)disk and is therefore unique
for each file or directory. However, certain file systems such as
AFS make this a pointer to some internal structure, and that
pointer may be equal for different files. Because of this it you
cannot use the ixemul.library in combination with such file
systems. Many Unix programs use the st_ino field, and those
programs will no longer work reliably.
