Alan Burlison commented on HADOOP-12603:
----------------------------------------
bq. The root cause in this case is lack of a native stat implementation on the
platform's Hadoop native library. This then causes the FileStatus to be
populated with the atime from the target instead of the symlink.
NIO has the ability to select either the symlink or the target of the symlink
in many of its APIs, e,g,
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/nio/file/Files.html#getFileAttributeView-java.nio.file.Path-java.lang.Class-java.nio.file.LinkOption...-
That might be an option rather than Native code.

> I have observed this test failure a few times in the past. When it fails, the
