Re: Bug/Help on cp and mv using 1.3.2?

["Michael Williamson" <mikewill at twcny dot rr dot com>]

OK.   Having looked a little further into the mailing list archives, I see
that this problem is wrapped around executable (.EXE) files.  According to
the threads, there was a patch to at least fix the error code.  Doesn't look
to me like it made it into 1.3.2.

Anyway, sorry for the wasted bandwidth... though I must comment that it's
somewhat confusing to show via "ls" the filename with the ".EXE" stripped if
that's what it's inode really says it is....
