+/* NAME

+/* SUMMARY
+/*	lstat file as user
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/*	#include <sys/stat.h>
+/*	#include <lstat_as.h>
+/*
+/*	int	lstat_as(path, st, euid, egid)
+/*	const char *path;
+/*	struct stat *st;
+/*	uid_t	euid;
+/*	gid_t	egid;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/*	lstat_as() looks up the file status of the named \fIpath\fR,
+/*	using the effective rights specified by \fIeuid\fR
+/*	and \fIegid\fR, and stores the result into the structure pointed
+/*	to by \fIst\fR.  A -1 result means the lookup failed.
+/*	This call does not follow symbolic links.
+/* DIAGNOSTICS
+/*	Fatal error: no permission to change privilege level.
+/* SEE ALSO
