Title:
  stat does not know about cifs

Status in coreutils package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in coreutils source package in Lucid:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: coreutils

  This is an upstream bug that has been fixed with coreutils 8.1 but it
  needs to be fixed in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS so that OpenOffice.org can save
  properly to cifs by disabling locking. See bug 486443, bug 578402, and
  bug 582925. To work around the locking issue on cifs we can check and
  disable based on the filesystem name but this does not work for cifs.

  On a cifs mount if you run the following you don't get the filesystem
  type name like on others like nfs, smb, etc.

  #stat -f -c %T filename
  UNKNOWN (0xff534d42)

  I have attached a patch that I believe fixes this correctly, and I can
  do the upload but would prefer someone to verify what I did looks sane
  as I am not familiar with coreutils.
