  Gnulib module: mkfifoat

  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  This function is missing on some platforms:
  glibc 2.3.6, macOS 12, FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, Minix 3.1.8, AIX 5.1, HP-UX 11, Solaris 10, Cygwin 1.5.x, mingw, MSVC 14, Android 5.1.
  But the replacement function is not safe to be used in libraries and is not multithread-safe.
  @item
  This function does not fail when the file name argument ends in a slash
  and (without the slash) names a nonexistent file, on some platforms:
  AIX 7.2.
  @item
  This function does not fail when the file name argument ends in a slash
  and (without the slash) names a symbolic link, on some platforms:
  macOS 14.

  Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  The gnulib replacement function always fails with @samp{ENOSYS} on
  some platforms: mingw, MSVC 14.
  @item
  If the argument exists and is a directory, the gnulib replacement
  function fails with @code{EISDIR} instead of the correct
  @code{EEXIST}: HP-UX 11.11.
  @end itemize
