Perhaps I'm missing something, but on my (reasonably) freshly installed 2.2.7
(CD set) box

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

main (int argc, char **argv ) {
  int myfd; 
  struct stat mysb;
  struct stat myfdsb;

  if (argc!=2) {
    printf ("usage: %s <file>", argv[0]);
    exit (EINVAL);
  }
  stat(argv[1], &mysb);
  myfd=open(argv[1], O_RDONLY);
  fstat(myfd, &myfdsb);
  printf("%s: %d, %d\n", argv[1], mysb.st_size, myfdsb.st_size);
}


produces a binary that does this:

% ./a.out /usr/home/jlocal/a.out
/usr/home/jlocal/a.out: 8808, 0

My expectaton would be for both numbers to be 8808

What am I doing wrong?
