  I have discovered a problem when using the stat function in a DOS program
under OS/2. The value of st_dev under real dos returns the number of the
disk ie a:=0 b:=1 c:=2 etc. 
When the same program is run in a VDM it returns garbage. st_rdev seems
to be an exact copy of st_dev also. I'm using BC++ 2.0 if that makes any
difference.

  This could be responsible for several problems I've encountered in 
some dos programs. eg cshow claims missing files as the cshow.dat file
I believe is based on stat information (this file is created when cshow is
first run after verifying all doc/driver files are present, allowing you 
to delete unneeded files).
  Could someone with the update beta test to see if this is still the case?
Could it just be something strange on my system? (my AMI keyboard BIOS is 
slightly old, can't see any connection however). Does IBM know about
this problem?
