Slightly OT, but can anyone give me a hint what these alternate streams are 
intended for?  Is this an attempt to recommit something like the apple 
data/resource fork?
There once was a time when people thought it would be a Good Thing (tm) to get 
their OS to recognize different properties of files.  Thus, VMS was created.  
In some theoretical sense, it probably was good.
