They do not.  EVERY program must contain A HACK if it wants to access
an HPFS partition raw.  E.g., I cannot write a simple Perl script
which would analyze some particular facet of HPFS layout - it would not
even be able to read the structures from disk.

Yours,
Ilya

P.S.  Unfortunately, AFAIU, one cannot add *L functions to FAT32 via a
simple hack: FAT32 volumes may contain FILES between 2GB and 4GB in
size, and these added entry points MUST ALSO support these files.

So one would need a lot of testing to check that the added entry
points do not affect operation on ordinary files in negative way.  And
since the interaction of functions with *L with the kernel is (?)
undocumented, this take some effort....
