[Bug libc/22959] euidaccess("/dir",W_OK) error on ACL-enabled directory


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22959

--- Comment #1 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
I fear this needs kernel support.  We are not going to reimplement the ACL
processing in userspace.

What we could do, instead, is to spawn a temporary thread and invoke the access
system call after switching to the effective IDs (all with raw system calls,
with disabled signals, so that we do not need a full thread).
