I think we're approaching a consensus that glibc should fix this too, so then it would just be gnulib matching the fix.
I installed the attached patch to Gnulib in preparation for the upcoming glibc fix. The patch causes fchmodat with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW to work on non-symlinks, and similarly for lchmod on non-symlinks. The idea is to avoid this sort of problem in the future, and to let Coreutils etc. work on older platforms as if glibc 2.32 (or whatever) is already in place.
