Now I observe different error after fix of #16749:


~~~
1)
File.lchmod changes the file mode of the link and not of the file ERROR
Errno::ENOTSUP: Operation not supported @ apply2files - /builddir/build/BUILD/ruby-2.8.0-810d66f3e7/rubyspec_temp/32136/359-file_chmod_test.lnk

It seems that glibc 2.31.9000 does not support lchmod above links. May be I should rather report this against glibc? Not sure ...
