By this, do you mean that if a file is under /usr/truc/abcd/temp/file, and
/usr/truc is really a mount-point of /dev/hda1, my function will only
return abcd/temp/file ? If yes, this is an (undocumented) feature, yes,
since I need the data relative to the current fs (the code is in a fs
called mfs).
