Like Solaris 9, FreeBSD 7.2 mistakenly allows stat("link-to-file/").
Unlike Solaris, it correctly forbids stat("file/"). A number of
interfaces are affected (such as utimes), but replacing stat is
enough to catch several by reusing the Solaris 9 fixes.
* m4/stat.m4 (gl_FUNC_STAT): Also detect FreeBSD bug with slash on
symlink.
* doc/posix-functions/stat.texi (stat): Document the bug.

* tests/test-stat.c (main): Adjust caller.
* tests/test-fstatat.c (main): Likewise.
* modules/stat-tests (Depends-on): Add stdbool, symlink.

Depending on the current directory, either stat(".",buf) or
stat("./",buf) would fail on mingw.

macros.
