Also buggy:

ln -s a b
ln -s nowhere b/  => mistakenly creates a
chmod ... b/      => mistakenly changes permissions of a
chown ... b/      => mistakenly changes owner of a
rm a
mkfifo b/         => mistakenly creates a

So I've got a few more to go.  For that matter, Solaris 9 has the same
bugs for chmod and chown, but we don't have a chmod replacement yet.
