+#!/bin/sh
+# Running cp S D on an NFS client while another client has just removed D
+# would lead (w/coreutils-8.16 and earlier) to cp's initial stat call
+# seeing (via stale NFS cache) that D exists, so that cp would then call
+# open without the O_CREAT flag.  Yet, the open must actually consult
+# the server, which confesses that D has been deleted, thus causing the
+# open call to fail with ENOENT.
+#
+# This test simulates that situation by intercepting stat for a nonexistent
+# destination, D, and making the stat fill in the result struct for another
+# file and return 0.
+#
+# This test is skipped on systems that lack LD_PRELOAD support; that's fine.
+# Similarly, on a system that lacks <dlfcn.h> or __xstat, skipping it is fine.
