>Environment:
Unixware 2.1.2
Unixware C compiler
>Description:
The Unixware lstat function is broken when server is compiled with
_POSIX_SOURCE defined. The last access time is incorrectly used to determine
whether the file is a symlink.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile with _POSIX_SOURCE defined. The last accessed time is used to
determine whether file is a symlink based on:
(T=file type field) xxxxTxxx
>Fix:
Remove define of _POSIX_SOURCE in UW case of conf.
