Hi Wolfram,

Do you have a plan to integrate this patch into your distribution source?

Is this PR about sysutils/stat?  Is there are further progress on it?

State Changed
From-To: open->suspended

With bugmeister hat on, mark this as 'suspended' since nothing has 
happened with it in quite some time.

There are two parts to this problem report. 

The description identifies a problem where long symlinks 
will printed without a terminating NUL character.  I have 
committed a fix for that problem. 

The patch section includes a patch providing new format 
functionality for stat.  Since that does not really belong 
in files/, I have not committed that part. 

Thanks for your contribution.
