[MacPerl] MacPerl Droplets on NTFS partition

["Ben Ko" <bko@e-p-s.com>]

We store all of our production MacPerl droplets on our NT server, which has
all NTFS partitions and is running Services for Macintosh.

We drag and drop files onto the droplets, and every now and then NT or the
Mac won't recognize the droplets as droplets. If I open the droplet and save
it again then it works fine. I realize this is most probably a Mac desktop
issue on the NTFS partition, and so probably just a problem with NT's Mac
support, but it happens often enough that i was curious if other people run
into this as well, and if anyone else had any other theories or solutions.

This doesn't happen to our Frontier droplets as far as i know, but then we
have many more MacPerl droplets on the NT server than we do Frontier and so
perhaps Frontier just has less chances.

We're running NT Server 3.51sp5 and MacPerl 5.1.3r2.
