  Gnulib module: symlinkat
  
  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  This function is missing on some platforms:
  glibc 2.3.6, MacOS X 10.5, FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, AIX
  5.1, HP-UX 11, IRIX 6.5, OSF/1 5.1, Solaris 10, Cygwin 1.5.x, mingw, Interix 3.5, BeOS.
  But the replacement function is not safe to be used in libraries and is not multithread-safe.
  @item
  Some platforms declare this function in @code{stdio.h} instead of
  @code{unistd.h}:
  Cygwin 1.7.1.
