7 Gnulib module: mkfifoat
9 Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
12 This function is missing on some platforms:
13 glibc 2.3.6, macOS 12, FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, Minix 3.1.8, AIX 5.1, HP-UX 11, Solaris 10, Cygwin 1.5.x, mingw, MSVC 14, Android 5.1.
14 But the replacement function is not safe to be used in libraries and is not multithread-safe.
16 This function does not fail when the file name argument ends in a slash
17 and (without the slash) names a nonexistent file, on some platforms:
20 This function does not fail when the file name argument ends in a slash
21 and (without the slash) names a symbolic link, on some platforms:
25 Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
28 The gnulib replacement function always fails with @samp{ENOSYS} on
29 some platforms: mingw, MSVC 14.
31 If the argument exists and is a directory, the gnulib replacement
32 function fails with @code{EISDIR} instead of the correct
33 @code{EEXIST}: HP-UX 11.11.
