This function is missing on some platforms:
|
|
glibc 2.3.6, MacOS X 10.5, FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, Minix 3.1.8,
|
|
AIX 5.1, HP-UX 11, IRIX 6.5, OSF/1 5.1, Solaris 10, Cygwin 1.5.x, mingw, MSVC 9,
|
|
Interix 3.5, BeOS.
|
|
However, the replacement does not always take into account ACLs. Also,
|
|
it is not safe to be used in libraries and is not multithread-safe.

There is an inherent race between calling this function and performing
|
|
some action based on the results; you should think twice before trusting
|
|
this function, especially in a set-uid or set-gid program.
