There's also an actually fairly significant bug fix in here. At one
point, long ago, I made a function that expands paths, and takes a flag
argument which may or may not be AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW.

And then for openat(2), it gets called with "flags", whatever those are.

And it turns out that this means that any flag value other than 0
caused pseudo not to follow a terminal symlink when expanding path,
which caused a number of very strange problems. And mostly those got
corrected, but this should reduce errors.

The change to drop the usually-harmless "path mismatch [%d links]"
messages for N>1 is purely cosmetic, but we're talking about 4MB of
cosmetic messages in a glibc locale build...
