Hi, the euidaccess and faccessat(AT_EACCESS) functions are emulated in glibc and only look at the file's uid/gid. They do not take ACLs into account, and this can cause subtle bugs. This should be noted in the BUGS section. Also, the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag to faccessat currently will not work if specified alone, because Linux does not have an laccess() system call. It works if specified together with AT_EACCESS, modulo the above ACL bug of course.
