FWIW, it looks like some of our highly trained on-staff programmers may have a plan for resurrecting an all-singing/all-dancing d_ino for every platform but NT4. So, expect d_ino in a snapshot soon - back in Cygwin by popular demand. And, if you're using NT4 - well sorry. You can blame that programmer or programmers for not being clever enough to figure out how to make it work there.
