Bug#640325: faccessat broken for user root?

[Christoph Egger <christoph@debian.org>]

Hi again!

  Just a quick note: the fallback code for non faccessat in dash seems
to work. So if this is more difficult to fix maybe we should ask dash
maintainers (Cc:) to use the fallback code for now?

Regards
