Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com> added the comment: Indeed, this appears to be a bug in stat64.c, specifically a regression in KB2467174. If I look at the code for _wstat64i32, it doesn't have the code that calls into _wsopen_s for symlinked files/dirs, so uses the legacy behavior to stat the target. I suspect it's also a memory leak, because it doesn't properly close the "findhandle" in this case.
Any suggestions on how to handle upstream bugs in Windows? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6727> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
