So, you have three addresses for what ought to be the same function. One of two things is true, either there are three functions or more likely, there are three pointers to the same function. I could be wrong but it seems silly to assume there would be three versions of stat() so my best guess is that you're taking the address of 3 pointers that all point at the same function. Of course, I don't actually know, Larry may very well have good reasons for having 3 versions of stat, all different, just to confuse us monks ;^)
