My Vista machine was built and Lilypond installed while daylight saving was active (still is active here in the Australian summer). Apart from an update to the font cache that seems to have happened a few days ago as a result of including an em dash in a score, my font cache doesn't update every time I run Lilypond.
stat is a C library function to obtain information about a file. I would assume fcstat is much the same.
