Thanks.  It looks like an improvement.
I'd like to do some testing during the weekend.

However, I suspect that this __access_noerrno may be unsafe to run
during initialization of tunables on the Hurd.  access_common calls
__hurd_file_name_lookup, which calls __hurd_file_name_lookup_retry,
which can use errno, __strtoul_internal, _itoa, strcpy, and memcmp.
I'm not yet sure whether this is a problem, and I'm not asking you
to spend time on it.
