the stat buffer, so that ACLs and other protections can be taken into
account. Unfortunately, Perl assumes that the stat buffer contains all
the necessary information, and passes it, instead of the filespec, to
-the access checking routine. It will try to retrieve the filespec using
+the access-checking routine. It will try to retrieve the filespec using
the device name and FID present in the stat buffer, but this works only
if you haven't made a subsequent call to the CRTL stat() routine,
because the device name is overwritten with each call. If this warning
-appears, the name lookup failed, and the access checking routine gave up

routine knows about the Perl C<stat> operator and file tests, so you
shouldn't ever see this warning in response to a Perl command; it arises
only if some internal code takes stat buffers lightly.)
