True and it should be done, but it doesn't change the fact that when it
happens, it happens to the user.
Not because the user made a choice in a bleeding-edge or out-of-support
compiler, which is the usual reason for compiler bugs, but because of where
they put the files.
PS: the libc++ implementation uses GetFileInformationByHandleEx... but not for
st_dev and st_ino for its internal stat() implementation.
