--- Comment #9 from Robert Watson <rwatson at FreeBSD.org> ---
This approach seems reasonable to me.  I can see arguments for also returning
EINVAL even if O_EXCL isn't expressed (i.e., that O_DIRECTORY | O_CREAT is
never a valid combination) but I don't feel strongly about it.  Maybe Tom takes
a view, but I think getting this patch in now makes sense.
