    I think he's misremembering about the format part because the UI does have some arbitrary cluster sizes for NTFS: https://github.com/lianthony/NT4.0/blob/b4a8d373d8a082db6758...

    That code still seemed to be around in (some versions of) XP: https://github.com/tongzx/nt5src/blob/daad8a087a4e75422ec96b...

    As for the ZIP support, I can't find the source code for ZIP folders specifically. There's this excerpt from another company (Schlumberger Technology Corp.): https://github.com/tongzx/nt5src/blob/daad8a087a4e75422ec96b... which was added in 1996 if the comments are to be believed.

  • Setenv Is Not Thread Safe and C Doesn't Want to Fix It

    Go likes to ignore edge cases ("all file names are UTF-8 and if they aren't then we'll just pretend they are") to make it easier to write code, so I'm not very surprised that it got caught in a POSIX related crash here.

    It's hard to tell if Microsoft altered the source code since, but the leaked XP source code (https://github.com/tongzx/nt5src/blob/master/Source/XPSP1/NT...) doesn't seem to do any getenv() calls for DNS lookups. The specific bug that started all this nonsense only triggers on (specific) Unix implementations. Unfortunately, Go opts to call the POSIX methods rather than GetEnvironmentVariable/SetEnvironmentVariable on Windows, so I suppose it's still possible that somewhere in the chain this bug gets triggered by Go code.

    You can view the IE source code but it isn't open source, so you cannot do much with it.
