FINFO calls the FLABELINFO intrinsic.  It passes the "mode" argument as
%36 for filenames that don't start with an "*" and %35 if the filename
start with "*".  These mode values tell FLABELINFO to not follow
symbolic links and to assume the caller is in user mode (not privileged).
To answer your question, FLABELINFO searches for TEMP files before
permanent.
