I've heard positive reports on newer snapshots. But, since you say that
there is a chance it might still happen, I'm going to disable the inode
based optimization in cpp to avoid future problems. This unfortunately
causes subtle and confusing compile time errors/glitches that are very
hard to track down, even for experienced users.
Suhaib is using NT 4.0, and I don't know if it can cause problems there
as well.
