  Modified files:
    sys/kern             vfs_lookup.c 
  Log:
  After exhaustive discussions and some meandering and confusion, enough
  people are on track with the cause and effect of this, and although
  fixing this severely degenerate case appears to violate the letter of
  POSIX.1-200x, Bruce and I (and enough others) agree that it should be
  comitted.
  
  So, this patch generates an ENOENT error for any attempt to do a path lookup
  through an empty symlink (e.g. open(), stat()).
