Synopsis: symlink(7) manpage says symlinks have no owners

State-Changed-From-To: open->analyzed
State-Changed-By: ru
State-Changed-When: Tue Aug 21 05:27:42 PDT 2001
State-Changed-Why: 
The suggested fix is also wrong because FreeBSD 3.0 and above
support access mode on a symbolic link with the lchmod(2) call.
In FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT, chmod(1) utility can be used to change
the access mode on a symbolic link.
