openat: test for fstatat (AT_FDCWD, ..., 0) bug
This tests for another fstatat bug on AIX 7.1: fstatat (AT_FDCWD, ..., 0) does not work. See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2011-09/msg00015.html>. * lib/fstatat.c (FSTATAT_AT_FDCWD_0_BROKEN) (LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK): Default to 0. (rpl_fstatat): Adjust so that it works around either (or both) bugs if present. * m4/openat.m4 (gl_FUNC_FSTATAT): Test for this fstatat bug.
