Hi Eric,

I'd be quite surprised if they deliberately changed their VFAT code to
break Linux with this patch. I'd say it is more likely that once Linux
kernels with this change are in widespread use that Microsoft will
start to test any changes in their VFAT filesystem to make sure it
works with Linux with this patch.

In recent times Microsoft has been testing new OS releases against
Samba, and has been actively working with the Samba Team to try to
prevent breakages with new releases. That doesn't mean the scenario
you describe is impossible, it just means it isn't as likely as
perhaps it once was.
Cheers, Tridge
