+ maint.mk: tell sc_prohibit_strcmp to ding "0 == strcmp (...)", too
+ * top/maint.mk (sc_prohibit_strcmp): Also prohibit uses of strcmp
+ uses with "==" *before* the call, e.g., 0 == strcmp (...)
+ Remove now-unnecessary str''cmp obfuscation.
+ Suggested by Akim Demaille.

+ acl: Don't use GETACLCNT and similar ops, since they are unreliable.
+
+ - There were several instances of this pattern:
+
+ for (;;) {
+ n = acl (f, GETACLCNT, 0, NULL);
+ [ allocate an array A of size N ]
+ if (acl (f, GETACL, n, a) == n)
+ break;
+ }
+
+ This loop might never terminate if some other process is constantly
+ manipulating the file's ACL. The loop should be rewritten to
+ terminate.
+
+ - The acl (... GETACLNT ...) call is merely an optimization; its value
+ is merely a hint as to how big to make the array. A better
+ optimization is to avoid the acl (... GETACLNT ...) call entirely,
+ and just guess a reasonably-big size, growing the size and trying
+ again if it's not large enough. This guarantees termination, and
+ saves a system call.
+
+ * lib/acl-internal.h: Include <limits.h>.
+ (MIN, SIZE_MAX): New macros.
+ * lib/file-has-acl.c (file_has_acl) [Solaris]: Read the entries into
+ a stack-allocated buffer, and use malloc if it does not fit. Don't
+ use GETACLCNT.
+ * lib/set-mode-acl.c (qset_acl) [Solaris]: Likewise.

+ acl: Fix endless loop on Solaris with vxfs.
+ * lib/file-has-acl.c (file_has_acl) [Solaris]: Treat a failing
+ acl()/facl() call for ACE_GETACL like a failing call for ACE_GETACLCNT.
+ * lib/set-mode-acl.c (qset_acl) [Solaris]: Likewise.
+ * lib/copy-acl.c (qcopy_acl)[Solaris]: Likewise.
+ * tests/test-sameacls.c (main)[Solaris]: Likewise.

+ * lib/file-has-acl.c (NEW_ACE_WRITEA_DATA): New macro.
+ (acl_ace_nontrivial): Relax the restrictions on access_masks[] so
+ that this function returns 0 in some more cases.
