Although that's mostly true, it's not entirely. 
4dc85c626fb9dcc1ccacf0c1ab7c0e9f2163c06f improves a diagnostic on MS-Windows, 
in some cases. bad45bee3e4bda479b792162dc73a7817d5664d1 prevents mishandling of 
files whose inode number is out of ino_t range, and likewise for dev_t and 
time_t; this can matter on 32-bit platforms where EOVERFLOW is an issue. 
941f62b24db232c58a41a0a621e08451f7f97ed8 fixes some errno confusion in 
diagnostics and fixes a bug on Haiku (where AT_FDCWD == -1 and the code 
mistakenly passed the -1 result of a failed open call to openat). 
9371d36cc707a099e6867199f18bbaa7795b6150 fixes an unlikely race.
