According to John Wenker on 8/5/2008 12:05 PM:
| Version 4.5.3 of stat(1) returns 0 (success indication) on error.
Very old known, and fixed, bug. Consider upgrading; the latest stable
version is 6.12:
$ stat abcd
stat: cannot stat `abcd': No such file or directory
$ echo $?
1
$ stat --version | head -n1
stat (GNU coreutils) 6.12
- --
Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
