        Defect report from : Garrett A. Wollman , MIT LCS / FreeBSD Project

(Please direct followup comments direct to yyyyyyyyyyyyyy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)

@ page 360 line 12795 section <sys/statvfs.h> editorial {GAW-2002d}

Problem:

Defect code :  1. Error

The text states ``ST_NOSUID    Does not support setuid( )/setgid( ) semantics.''
setuid() and setgid() act upon processes, not files or filesystems.


Action:

Replace with:

ST_NOSUID       Does not support the semantics of the ST_ISUID and ST_ISGID
                file mode bits.
