/* WARNING:
*
* In Plan 9 access(AWRITE) and access(AEXEC) in directories
* fail despite the actual permission of the directory.
*
* This is well understood in Plan 9, but it's counter intuitive.
*
* In Plan 9, to create a file in a directory you need write
* permission in the directory. Still you don't need to (and you
* cannot) open the directory for writing before calling create.
*
* To my eyes this is a UNIX inheritance that could be "fixed"
* but there are some trade off.
