I did yesterday morning. I talked with lupus (he's our perl expert,

Why? It's caching. It makes the function (ideally) faster for not making
stat call twice (-d operator calls stat if filename is provided). Too
bad its not working for us (and seems like only for us) :)

I'll try to investigate further.
