Well, I have to admit that I'm a _tiny_ bit nervous that some odd OS or 
filesystem has special magic st_dev rules so that it changes randomly even 
within a filesystem, but that would be very non-posix (think of the 
confusion it would cause standard UNIX tools like 'find -xdev' etc), so 
it's more a worry of "I have no idea what st_dev means on Windows" than 
anything really solid.
