Thanks. Did so. Everything is proper and singular, and totally matches the
winobj display posted earlier:

And, Oh!, from the same elevated admin shell, I get no doubles from "cat
/proc/partitions", either!
$ cat /proc/partitions

Note that "winobj" had to be run "as Administrator" as well, in order for me to
be able to open those entries...
IDK, if "strace" elevates itself somehow but like I noted previously, "strace
-o cat.strace cat /proc/partitions" shows the list
without duplicates.
