You're right.  It works everywhere, but not at //host/share itself.  Now
this call used to exploit MS POSIX layer with some work-arounds by me.
I changed this now to use native Win32 GetFileAttributes(), but the
result stays the same.

All functions seem to fail on \\host\name as well as on '.' if the working
directory is \\host\name!????

Anyone out there who knows how to find out attributes of the folder
that represents the root of a share?  I be transparent I must both be
able to detect existence and write-access.

	Thanks --- Jan
