/* lstat works differently on Linux and Solaris systems. POSIX (see | |
"pathname resolution" in the glossary) requires that programs like | |
'ls' take into consideration the fact that FILE has a trailing slash | |
when FILE is a symbolic link. On Linux and Solaris 10 systems, the | |
lstat function already has the desired semantics (in treating | |
'lstat ("symlink/", sbuf)' just like 'lstat ("symlink/.", sbuf)', | |
but on Solaris 9 and earlier it does not. | |
If FILE has a trailing slash and specifies a symbolic link, | |
then use stat() to get more info on the referent of FILE. | |
If the referent is a non-directory, then set errno to ENOTDIR | |
and return -1. Otherwise, return stat's result. */ | |
