RH7.3 with XFS : /usr/bin/test -x seems broken

[David Greaves <david@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

When I use /usr/bin/test, well, [ -x filename ] it always returns true.

I've tried this on two systems now (both installed using the same media, 
both running fine otherwise)
I don't have any other systems to test against yet - my debian/XFS is down.
And all my filesystems are XFS... oh well.

Test case is pretty simple:
# ll /tmp/myfile
ls: /tmp/myfile: No such file or directory
# touch /tmp/myfile
# if [ -x /tmp/myfile ]; then echo yep; fi
yep
# ll /tmp/myfile
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            0 Aug 21 14:00 /tmp/myfile
#

Anyone else have this?

I'll try and narrow it down further...

Systems are RH7.3 with 2.4.18-4SGI_XFS_1.1
installed using the iso and patch (thanks for those BTW)
