 I see: I guarded the new functions by #ifdef to make sure they would not
 be visible to programs unaware it was not finished, but I did not though
 about GNU configure's way of discovering things that are not defined in
 the headers.
 
 There are multiple fixes possible:
 
 1) GNU libc defines macros to spot unimplemented functions, and GNU
 configure uses that feature to spare them. We can quickly workaround
 Samba build failure by adding in pkgsrc/net/samba35/Makefile
 CFLAGS+=        -D__stub_utimensat
 This is should work arround the build problem immediatly. Can you let me
 know if it does?
 
 2) #define __stub_utimensat in <limits.h> to obtain the same effect
 system-wide.
 
 3) Samba does not use the file descriptor argument of utimensat(),
 therefore we can quickly implement enough of it for Samba to use it in
 -current, it does not depend on namei upgrade. This is just a utime able
 to return struct timespec.
