Hi Tom

I think you also need to back out parts of rev 1.17.2.10 of chmod.1

The part I'm talking about is:


@@ -83,19 +83,19 @@ Do not display a diagnostic message if
 .Nm
 could not modify the mode for
 .Va file .
+.It Fl h
+If the file is a symbolic link, change the mode of the link itself
+rather than the file that the link points to.
 .It Fl v

and

-Symbolic links do not have modes, so unless the
-.Fl H
-or
-.Fl L
-option is set,
-.Nm
-on a symbolic link always succeeds and has no effect.
 The
 .Fl H ,
 .Fl L


These two parts was why I assigned the PR to you in the first place.
