Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
This function is missing on some platforms:
OpenBSD 3.8, Minix 3.1.8, AIX 5.1, HP-UX 11, IRIX 6.5, Solaris 11.4, mingw, MSVC 14, Android 7.1.
@item
This function cannot set full timestamp resolution. Use
@code{utimensat(AT_FDCWD,file,times,AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW)}, or the
gnulib module @code{utimens}, instead.
@item
The mere act of using @code{lstat} modifies the access time of
symlinks on some platforms, so @code{lutimes} can only effectively
change modification time:
Cygwin.
