Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
     Using std::filesystem.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     Have to use C stat function, which is not good when others add code.
   * What was the outcome of this action?
     Temporarily fixed.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
     Permanently fixed.

   This was fixed in GCC 8.4. See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91947
   and https://gcc.gnu.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=gcc.git;h=761696abfe0a772315449e3d2b57de76756f5953
