slash, and POSIX requires that the unlink attempt to remove
that directory (which would leave the symlink dangling).
Unfortunately, Solaris 9 is one of the platforms where the
root user can unlink directories, and we don't want to
cripple this behavior on real directories, even if it is
seldom needed (at any rate, it's nicer to let coreutils'
unlink(1) give the correct errno for non-root users). But we
don't know whether name was an actual directory, or a symlink
to a directory; and due to the bug of ignoring trailing
slash, Solaris 9 would end up successfully unlinking the
symlink instead of the directory. Technically, we could use
realpath to find the canonical directory name to attempt
deletion on. But that is a lot of work for a corner case; so
we instead just use an lstat on the shortened name, and
reject symlinks with trailing slashes. The root user of
unlink(1) will just have to live with the rule that they
can't delete a directory via a symlink. */
