BTW my (command line) chmod doesn't know a "-h" option, what's it supposed to do? Something with (not) following symlinks, I guess?

from NetBSD's chmod(1) manpage:

 -h      If file is symbolic link, the mode of the link is changed.

But apparantly only NetBSD and FreeBSD have this flag, sorry.

No problem - Linux here, BTW, not one of the *BSDs. ;-) I was answering to the OP because I also saw that lstat() warning thing on my own system again yesterday.
