According to Corinna Vinschen on 3/6/2008 6:27 AM:

| I examined this situation on Linux.  In Linux, touch tries to open t\
| and open() returns EISDIR.  The fact that you see an ENOENT is a result
| of touch trying to use other methods to set the time:

In other words, Linux does it wrong, too.  I guess it's okay to be
bug-compatible to Linux, since after all, we are trying to emulate Linux
more than POSIX.
