  59 /* lstat works differently on Linux and Solaris systems.  POSIX (see
  60    "pathname resolution" in the glossary) requires that programs like
  61    'ls' take into consideration the fact that FILE has a trailing slash
  62    when FILE is a symbolic link.  On Linux and Solaris 10 systems, the
  63    lstat function already has the desired semantics (in treating
  64    'lstat ("symlink/", sbuf)' just like 'lstat ("symlink/.", sbuf)',
  65    but on Solaris 9 and earlier it does not.
  66 
  67    If FILE has a trailing slash and specifies a symbolic link,
  68    then use stat() to get more info on the referent of FILE.
  69    If the referent is a non-directory, then set errno to ENOTDIR
  70    and return -1.  Otherwise, return stat's result.  */
