Work around an fchownat bug in glibc-2.4: http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2006-September/093218.html This bug would cause "chown -RP ... DIR" to follow symlinks in DIR, in spite of the -P option. * m4/openat.m4 (gl_FUNC_FCHOWNAT, gl_FUNC_FCHOWNAT_DEREF_BUG): New macros. (gl_PREREQ_OPENAT): Require gl_FUNC_FCHOWNAT. * modules/openat (Files): Add lib/fchownat.c. * lib/openat.c (fchownat): Don't define here. Move to... * lib/fchownat.c: ...this new file.

/* This function serves as replacement for a missing fchownat function,
as well as a work around for the fchownat bug in glibc-2.4:
<http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2006-September/093218.html>
when the buggy fchownat-with-AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW operates on a symlink, it
mistakenly affects the symlink referent, rather than the symlink itself.

use lchown, otherwise, use chown. If possible, do it without changing
