Thanks for the info. This seems to be a kernel bug, one I see no easy
way for gzip to work around. To reproduce the bug, perhaps you can run
the following shell commands:
mkdir d
chmod a-w d
gcc dfly-openat-bug.c
./a.out
where dfly-openat-bug.c is attached. The a.out should succeed, but I
expect it reports a failure for d/f. This might be a basis for a bug
report to the DragonflyBSD folks.
