    Hi,

    linux-2.3.99pre7-something doesn't provide the right behaviour when a
    file is opened without O_CREAT: It creates a file even if you didn't
    ask for it. (I have an application that normally complains that its
    output file doesn't exist, and I usually run it without first creating
    the output file, just to make sure I'm not overwriting anything...)

    Regards,

                            Roger.
