Subject: [ruby-talk:7763] Problem : file copy on NT

Hi,
 I'm getting different results for the following code on NT and Unix:

require 'ftools'

begin
 fh = File.open("donkey","w");
 fh.close
 File.copy("donkey","horse");
rescue EOFError
 puts "trying to rescue you"
ensure
 puts "last ditch effort" 
end

On NT 4 the output is:

Exception `EOFError' at /cygdrive/d/barry/ruby/lib/ruby/1.6/ftools.rb:37
last ditch effort

On HP-UX the output is:

last ditch effort
