emacs/m4/lchmod.m4
Paul Eggert 9d626dffc6 Add 'nofollow' flag to set-file-modes etc.
This avoids some race conditions (Bug#39683).  E.g., if some other
program changes a file to a symlink between the time Emacs creates
the file and the time it changes the file’s permissions, using the
new flag prevents Emacs from inadvertently changing the
permissions of a victim in some completely unrelated directory.
