Yes I agree. I'll ask review for my patch before committing it against
-HEAD.
What I feel a bit concern is that if we force configure script not to
use openat() we may lose the chance that these functions get exercised
which will not be good Perhaps something like BROKEN would be better
because they will be checked later, but that's only my $0.02 :)
