+Subject: [PATCH 12/26] don't pass AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag to faccessat()
+
+Avoid using AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag. It doesn't seem like the right
+thing to do and it's not portable (not supported by musl). See:
+
+  http://lists.landley.net/pipermail/toybox-landley.net/2014-September/003610.html
+  http://www.openwall.com/lists/musl/2015/02/05/2
+
+Note that laccess() is never passing AT_EACCESS so a lot of the
+discussion in the links above doesn't apply. Note also that
+(currently) all systemd callers of laccess() pass mode as F_OK, so
+only check for existence of a file, not access permissions.
+Therefore, in this case, the only distiction between faccessat()
+with (flag == 0) and (flag == AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) is the behaviour
+for broken symlinks; laccess() on a broken symlink will succeed with
+(flag == AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) and fail (flag == 0).
+
+The laccess() macros was added to systemd some time ago and it's not
+clear if or why it needs to return success for broken symlinks. Maybe
+just historical and not actually necessary or desired behaviour?
+
