A new file created on a mounted MSDOSFS does not appear in the directory
listing in WinXPPro when WinXPPro is restarted from a hibernated state.

	Hibernate WinXPPro

	Boot 5.1-Release

	mount -t msdosfs /dev/ad0s1 /mnt
	cp /root/.profile /mnt/profile
	reboot

	Restart WinXPPro

	dir /a c:\

	profile not visible

	Reboot 5.1-Release, profile visible.

	Full reboot of WinXPPro, profile visible.

 Have you tested this with another FreeBSD version or another OS, and
 determined that there is an OS for which Win XP *does* see the changes
 made to its own filesystem?  I think this may very well be due to XP's
 disk cache - it may simply assume that there have been no changes since
 the hibernation, because no one is supposed to run anything else while
 XP is hibernated.
 
 G'luck,
 Peter

State-Changed-Why:  
Why do you think this is a FreeBSD bug?  As Peter suggests, 
it is likely to be caused by WinXP assuming that the cached 
contents of the filesystem are still valid (this is the point 
of caching data, so you don't have to refetch it from disk each 
time when you haven't changed it).
