Comment:
Besides that #5520 has been marked as invalid, your patch also contains a
number of style violations - we do have a coding style and require all of
our own sources to comply to it.
Anyway, StyledEdit obviously issues no warning, as writing actually
succeeds (since you are the root user), so the file is writable after all.
I guess it would make sense to check for the writable bit being set; so
while this patch isn't adequate, I'm keeping the bug open.
BTW: Instead of fstat(), there is also a BFile::GetStat() inherited from
BStatable.
