--- Comment #3 from Tom Ridge <freebsd@tom-ridge.com> ---
What is the behaviour with a symlink to a non-existing target (in an existing
directory) with flags O_CREAT | O_DIRECTORY | O_EXCL? (POSIX seems fairly clear
that this should not create the target, but as you note, other platforms are
not necessarily compliant).
