This pull request as well #24 present an interesting challenge. In order to
verify that they do the right thing on illumos it would be nice to reproduce
the problems that they fix and then to verify that the problems are indeed
fixed.
But illumos does not support `xattr=sa` (seems to be ZoL-specific).
Nor does illumos seem to support setting ACLs or extended attributes on
symbolic links.
Even such a simple thing as changing Unix mode of a symbolic link does not
appear to be supported.
As far as I can tell, all the test cases for the related FreeBSD and ZoL bugs
and fixes involve one of the above capabilities. It seems that the bugs in
question require more than one variable length SAs to be present. This is
probably the reason why the bugs haven not affected Solaris and illumos users
so far.
If anyone has ideas for illumos test scenarios please share.
