| ; grep -C 5 0777 $home/cvs/plan9/src/lib9/getns.c
|       if((d->mode&0777) != 0700 || strcmp(d->uid, getuser()) != 0){
|               werrstr("bad name space dir %s", p);
|               free(p);
|               free(d);
|               return nil;
|       }
|       free(d);
|       return p;
| }
