I tried.

With openat() we'd have to go through a bit of hoops to figure out which
actual file we ended up using and it was not pretty.  And given the
other snowflake considerations folks wanted to support as that *is* what
typically users support, it turned out much easier to just use good 'ol
open().

New patch set coming.
