That would work, of course, but is there a chance we store some fields
of 'struct stat' in other data structures or objects, and then use
them elsewhere, for example for comparison with values received from
the Gnulib's 'stat' or 'fstat'?
And in any case, we will have to have a prominent commentary
explaining why we do such strange things.
I wonder whether a better way is not to import the Gnulib 'stat' and
'fstat' modules at all. Are they required by other Gnulib modules,
and if so, by which ones?
Thanks.
