From a15208c6fbb88b817909d4ed60bc476644076486 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: Add an interface to the lchflags(2) syscall. The new -h option is
 analogous to chmod(1)'s -h. It allows setting flags on symbolic links, which
 *do* exist in 5.x+ despite a claim to the contrary in the chflags(1) man
 page.
