1.3.12 bug: st_mode of file changes to directory after unlink?

Hi.

If I open a file for read/write and then
unlink it (the old Unix idiom for temporary
files), fstat() on the file's fd shows
that st_mode has changed from regular
file to directory.

Regards,
    Mark.

: ASHOKA ; ./xx
/tmp/bt.XXXXXX
before unlink: mode 0x81a4 fmt 0x8000 size 0
after unlink: mode 0x416d fmt 0x4000 size 0
