Guard against the POSIX allowed behavior where access (file, X_OK)
Sun Dec 8 23:36:12 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Guard against
the POSIX allowed behavior where access (file, X_OK)
succeeds for uid==0 when no executable bits are set.
* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Add doc notes
about the possibility of race conditions, and the
fact that EXISTS and IS_EXECUTABLE give results
for the real uid not the effective user ID.
(#81854, Morten Welinder.)
