Hi Sandra,
> This patch is a followup to PR23153, in which it was reported that gas's inode comparison test for identical input and output files doesn't work on MinGW hosts,
Is this still the case ? We did make some improvements to the code
(So that it also checks the st_dev field, and if the inode is 0,
then the check is assumed to have failed).
Cheers
Nick
