>Description:

Under Tru64 5.1, stat is defined as a macro, but is not exposed as a
function, except to the DEC C compiler.  The header file uses

	#pragma extern_prefix "_F64_"

to map stat to the function _F64_stat, but only if DECC is defined.

My question is, is this something that can or should be fixed by
fixincludes, or should I just complain to the vendor about it?

Thanks.

/* this will fail to compile */
/* tru64-stat-bug.c:9: `stat' undeclared (first use in this function) */

#include <stdio.h>

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>

int main() {
  printf("%p\n", &stat);

  return 0;
}
