Hi Pekka,

> No, MinGW populates the st_dev field with some apparently non-random value

In which case I will go with the original patch.  I know that technically
a valid file might have an inode of 0, but I think that in practice this
will never happen since most file systems do not use inode 0, (at least not for
ordinary files).  Or if they do, it is for a special purpose, such as marking
that the file has been deleted.

Cheers
  Nick
