Hi

I would like to import readlink(1) from OpenBSD into
usr.bin.

- But we already have OpenBSDs readlink(1) in the ports
  tree. Why do you still want to do that?

We should, IMO, have front ends to most/all of our syscalls
as utilities in our base system. This is one step
closer to that goal.

- Why did you think of this now?

There is an open PR about it: 
http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/11092


Opinions?

If I don't get to many objections I intend 
to do this sometime next week.

/Johan
