    lib/libc/sys         stat.2 
  Log:
  Contains the para
  
    Unlike other filesystem objects, symbolic links do not have an owner,
    group, access mode, times, etc.  Instead, these attributes are taken from
    the directory that contains the link.  The only attributes returned from
    an lstat() that refer to the symbolic link itself are the file type
    (S_IFLNK), size, blocks, and link count (always 1).
  
  This is bogus, and disagrees with the implementation and symlink(7).
  
  Removed it.
