Does anyone know of a quick & standard way to lookup a file in a filesystem by
inode number?  Currently I'm useing "find $BASE -inode $INODE" to get the
filenames of inodes returned by lsof,  but it takes a bit in very large
filesystems.  I'm actually doing this on AIX 4.2.1, not Linux (if it were Linux
I'd just look in /proc/pid).
