Description

Need to investigate further, but gotcha seems to fail when wrapping stat() on TOSS and LSF. This can lead to a segfault when the user application calls stat.

Research direction

Start by reproducing gotcha's stat() wrapping failure on TOSS and LSF with a user application. Trace the wrapping path to identify why stat() can cause a segfault, then verify that stat() completes safely on both environments without the reported failure.
