Re: GWorkspace 0.7.0, System, Applications and restart

[Robert Slover]

I don't know how portable it is, but you can resolvepath(2) the file 
path, stat(2) it, look at the dev_t member, stat(2) the directory, look 
at the dev_t member of that, stat(2) the directory's parent, look at 
dev_t, etc., and so on back up the file tree toward the root.  When 
dev_t changes, you've found the filesystem's mount point.
