------- Comment #1 from thomas-dloop at kuehne.cn  2007-04-25 12:49 -------
This is a C issue. The below C code shows the same symbtoms like the above D 
code:

# #include <sys/stat.h>
# #include <stdio.h>
# #include <errno.h>
#
# int main(){
#    struct stat meta;
#    int code = stat("/tmp/test.dat", &meta);
#
#    if(0 == code){
#       printf("isdir: %i\n", S_ISDIR(meta.st_mode));
#    }else{
#       printf("errno: %i\n", errno);
#    }
#
#    return 0;
# }

While this issue can be by-passed via stat64 (below) stat64 isn't guaranteed to 
be present (most current Linux system should support it but some odler ones 
don't):

# #define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE 1
# #include <sys/stat.h>
# #include <stdio.h>
# #include <errno.h>
#
# int main(){
#    struct stat64 meta;
#    int code = stat64("/tmp/test.dat", &meta);
#
#    if(0 == code){
#       printf("isdir: %i\n", S_ISDIR(meta.st_mode));
#    }else{
#       printf("errno: %i\n", errno);
#    }
#
#    return 0;
# }
